We inherited a playset from a neighbor. Its more than a few years old
and is made out of PT Pine. I used waterseal on it last year, but
other than that, it has no finish on it (after all, its just PT Pine).
Lately I noticed its splinttering a little, so its probably time to
think about a sanding. I was wondering if anyone would/could
recommend a finish for this thing.
We have a neighborhood playground that has some kind of finish that
almost makes it feel like plastic to the touch. I don't think its
Poly, but can't be sure.
So far I've been considering some kind of exterior Poly, but was also
wondering if Epoxy would be an option.
Any help appreciated.
Take a look at the Cetol/Sikkens products.

"Spar" urethane
is good for the out-of-doors. It's probably what's on the playground equipment.
Very glossy, though, but holds up well to UV. Tom
Someday, it'll all be over....
