Wood veneer is not hardwood, hence the treatment could be different from normal wood. They are sheets which is laminated on top of other wood.

What do you want to protect it from - water? Termites? Scratches? This would decide what you can use to protect it ...e.g. linseed oil, water based protection, natural oils, wax, etc

You can refer to this site for the different types of wood protection. Some of these brands can be purchase at Houz Depot, Kota Damansara or some decent hardware stores

Linseed Oil is a bit challenging to find in Malaysia.

For rain tree wood, what kind of oil is good to prevent cracks?
*
Cracks are usually due to fluctation of heat and cold continuously or impact from other objects.

Don't think any oil will help to prevent cracks.

How can I prevent more cracks on the surface?

1. Got picture? How bad is bad?

2. Where is it located? Indoor / Outdoor?

3. Where is it being used? Dining table, coffee table, countertop, side table?
