    Most Durable Finish for Exterior Door

    I'm building some Sapele raised panel doors. If anybody has suggestions on the "best", ie. most durable finish, they would be greatly appreciated. One will face east, but two others are unprotected from sun or rain, on the south, and west sides. Thanks in advance.

    Checking In At The Door

    Hello to all and greetings from the Piedmont. Glad to find this site and look forward to learning some new things. I'm a hobbyist who enjoys making projects out of scrap and leftover wood lying around the shop. I also enjoy SketchUp, which stops some of the "oops" from happening in the shop.
