Protect bathroom vanity from water over time?

Hello - I recently did a small bathroom renovation and have a vanity similiar to this. Honestly, it’s build kind of cheap and definitely made of particle board that is painted. It’s a secondary bathroom so it’s fine for what it is. I know if this gets wet over time it will get ruined. Is there a wax or some type of clear sealant I can wipe over the “wood” that will repeal water and protect? If I have to re-wax every so often I don’t mind. The vanity is already installed, so not looking to paint over it or anything like that. Thoughts on something I can use to protect and not discolor the white paint? I’m sure there has to be some type of furniture wax out there that would work. When I googled this I get a lot of results for natural wood or unfinished/unpainted wood. This is painted particle board which I’m not sure how much of a difference that makes? submitted by /u/TheBigFish2004 [link] [comments]
