Nothing, anything you put on the wood other than the resin you plan to glass it with will create bonding problems.

Re: what to use for sealant?

depending on what resin you use....epoxy or poly.....will determine your glass...


if you use poly......matt, cloth , matt....

epoxy.....cloth , cloth.....

i would think poly is more than adaquate for this job.....but its your call
