Drift wood can be coated with polyurethane.
I did several pieces for different places they are using them to compliment decor in their new house. I used a pressure washer with the delicate nozzle. Be sure not to use any of the stronger nozzles. You could end up with markings from the water or in some cases completely rear apart the wood.
