I’m restoring a 1959 Around the World game. The main cabinet is stripped and almost repaired. At this point I need to decide if or how I will finish the inside of the cabinet. Normally I paint the inside white, but this is a woodrail so I’m considering other options. Please let me know what you think.

I pulled the trigger on some clear satin polyurethane. Hopefully the satin finish will be more natural and still provide a coating I want.

This is how it looks after two coats of satin polyurethane.
