once you’ve painted and distressed to your taste you will need to seal the paint job. This can be accomplished by rubbing clear wax onto the surface, you could also do a combo of clear wax and dark wax (always start with clear) for an even more distressed look. You can also seal the chalk paint with a few coats of a polycrylic sealer -

Yes - do what Holly said - wax the table or paint with polyurethane.
