Sealing the MDF base?

What have others done to seal the Base? Been on google several options, epoxy,thinned PVA glue,lacquer, enamel, shellac, etc. It gets humid in my shop in the summer and hot!! I only run the air during the heat of the day

I used a can of Valspar spray spar varnish.

I didn’t seal the base but I sealed my mdf supplemental wasteboard with 50% pva (elmers) glue and water.

I used some leftover polyurethane I had sitting around. Soak the board, wipe it back, sand once dry.

A you can use shellac or make a wiping poly using 1 part each oil based polyurethane, boiled linseed oil, and mineral spirits.

Both are easy to repair.
