Hi I have made a hide for my royal and just wondered what kinds of products are safe to seal it with. I have seen some people use yacht varnish just wondered if there was anything else. And is there anything that when it dries it stays dull looking as I don't want it too look shiney

Or is there any you definately can't use as they might be toxic to the snake
