Pat....It is just up to you about stain or paint. After sanding and cleaning you will apply you stain and then polyurethane otherwise if paint do the primer/paint.

-the amount of proper preparation undertaken
-the quality of materials (brushes, paint) used
-if adequate amount of drying time was allowed in between coats
