Hey,

I have wooden cabinets, a bookshelf, a centre table, and a countertop in my house. All the furniture has gloss paint finish on wood. I think the finish brings out the natural beauty of the wood. It makes the surface seem shiny. When the flossy finish begins to wear off, I call for the carpenter and get everything polished with varnish.
