Stain it with whatever you like the look of mate, then give the inside 2 or 3 coats of yacht varnish.

The only thing is to allow it to dry and air for at least a week before a bird goes near it.

look in the yellow pages too see who sprays cellulose paints. And get it done in acid-catylized laquer,

Yup, use anything you want mate, as hawka said tho, let it dry completely and air through for a week first. I varnished the outside of mine and painted it with a hard wearing black door paint for the inside.

U can use any stain or varnish but like they say, always leave it a week to ten days before ltting your bird anywhere near it
