I would vacuum and use a toothbrush to brush out holes and then pour a coat of epoxy resin...this will level the top by filling cracks, holes.dents....the table top will look like glass....suggest you watch yoube.com videos on pouring epoxy...it's not hard to do
I have a similar table (old Mexican door turned table). Mine is REALLY rough with cracks and holes and splits. The only thing I have thought is glass or plexiglass. In the end I just use it as a library table. I have used it for the occasional family dinner but, sometimes things are what they are, and once I quit trying to make it something else I enjoy it more! It has been a beautiful display area, Christmas tree table, buffet....Enjoy.
I would also just have a piece of glass cut to fit the top. Enjoy it's beauty, save your clothing, hands, arms etc.
A crocheted or lace tablecloth might do the job, and table legs and chairs, if any, would give a view of the wood finish. After that, I'd go with a glass top. Best wishes.
Place a piece of glass cut to fit, to hold it in place use suction cups.
Measure the table top and have a piece of glass cut to fit. Even a tablecloth won't smooth out the rough surface nearly as well as a piece of glass.
My answer would be to pur a Toughened Glass or Plexiglass or clear Resin on it!
