Finish for wooden outdoor table

I've just build an outdoor table from pallet wood which I've cut down and sanded. I've put 2 coats of Barrettine Wood Protective treatment (clear) on but do I still need to put some form of protective coating on it? I don't want to paint it as I want to keep the wood colours. If I do need to put another finish on it, what's recommended? Thanks.

    my understanding of barrettine WPT is that it is a topcoat and you shouldnt need anything else on it. i'm pretty sure its water repellent - splash some water on if it beads and stays beaded then its working. pretty sure a few coats wont hurt as pallet wood can be very variable in quality.
