I have built a container for my cat litter tray in the hallway to keep it out of sight and out of mind and it is looking pretty good, but wondering about the long term viability in terms of build up of cat piss. The litter tray itself is a massive stainless steel one with tall sides so not super worried, but wondering is there anything at all I can do for a bit more peace of mind?

I found that diluting oil poly with mineral spirits made applying it smoothly easier. I started 50/50 then either increased or decreased the amount of poly on subsequent layers. I think increased. And use plain mineral spirits to remove dust after sanding between coats.
