hey guys, as some would know, i work at a local landscaping business. well we have tons of bamboo around the shop, well we use the dead stalks around the shop to help support smaller trees such as japanese maples ect. well i got to thinking, and wanted to maybe make a tiki bar out of this stuff, or at least use it to cover the actual wood i would use.

what i want to know is there something i can put on it to prevent it from further decomposition? such as a polyurethane or a clear coat of some sort? thanks! i think for my first few projects with this stuff i may make towel racks for my tiki bathroom. i will try to post some picks, they are all about 5-6 ft stalks and they are all already maturely brown(dead). so no green on them anymore.... please help if possible!
