Ok, here goes, I feel this may cause a few different points of view but.....

Which finish would you recommend for a complete beginner, I've been turning bowls for a few years and always finish with shellac sanding sealer followed by microcrystalline wax.

Now I can see that the microcrystalline wax may not be durable enough for something like a pen so what do you guys suggest?
