Not sure if you ended up getting the howards but if that wood has literally no seal or finish on it, you’d probably want something on it if you want to keep it looking nice. There is a million options depending on what you want, or just leave it but you’ll get some patina quick. Urethane doesn’t have to be shiny if you sand it a bit but it can be a huge disaster if it starts peeling. I haven’t used howards on boards though only furniture and speakers with positive results. I always thought boards were kind of treated already anyways?
