Anything should do,

all it does if gives a quick drying coat to block up all the pores in the wood sp stuff doesn't sink in

Varnish works too (and is probably a bit harder wearing if they're gamed with a lot)

I still can't get over using Hairspray on them first!

Any particular brand/type?

Good will ol' cheap Aquanet do the trick?
