Poly will not stick to formica and will peel off when wetted.
my first thought is ordinary car wax.

We replaced our vanity with black granite (had a piece laying around) using an undermount sink and a new faucet. Made the top a few inches bigger to fill the gap between the sink and the shower too. Sometime over the holidays I'll add the granite backsplashes to each wall, sealed to the counter with 100% silicone.
After we replace the over head kitchen cabs we'll get around to replacing the kitchen counter with one piece of Neolith and an undermount sink. When particle board gets wet bad things happen. I am neurotic with the paper towels keeping things dry until then. The seam at the range has already started to tent a bit from swelling.
This is what happens when you give a travel trailer to a remodeling contractor.
Counter Tops

We bought a new 2016 Launch 24 RLS and have camped in it several times. One of the things we noticed was that the countertops in both the kitchen and bathroom (and the table for that matter) have been done pretty cheaply. If you don't wipe up a moisture spot (water or other) right away, it will leave a stain.
Has anyone done anything to their countertops to provide a more protective surface? I was thinking of using some polyurethane, but wanted to get some feedback before doing anything.
