You can simply clean them up with something mild, without a lot of scrubbing that may change the way they look. Use a clear top coat of poly, or whatever you feel would be best. You can get most in matte to as glossy as you want. If you use something that stays clear, it should stay with the same look. If you are going to use them outside I would suggest something like marine polyurethane in clear that is made for outdoors.Helpful Reply- See 1 previous
