Hi all, 

     I'm working on making a set of these place mats and I am new to using finishes and sealants. I know i probably wont be able to get them completely waterproof but I would at least make them resistant to dropped food and minor spills. I've read thru some of the posts in here and I'm considering using Fiebings Resolene, but I would greatly appreciate your expert opinions.

Thanks,

  Nick

I would;

a/ use resolene thinned 1:1 with water

b/ dip tray coat it with at least two coats, letting dry in between each coating.

Hang up, clipped by a corner to allow the excess Resolene to run and drip off, into a tray or waste paper; speeds up the drying too especially if you have warm air blowing around them
