I don`t think there is any need to varnish them .

Matty,

May not be of much help but at least this will get rid of your posts sad blue face.

I suppose this all depends upon what material the bedboards are made from.  I assume the manufacturers have considered the exposure to elements when selecting the material to be used.

I wouldnt be surprised if some varnishes could react detrimentally with the material and may effect its performance in the long run.

i suggest contacting the manufacturer of your unit outlining what you would like to do and see if they think it will be detrimental to the material.

You could always think of using a preservative instead of a varnish as this would lengthen the woods life and could possible repel liquid accidents a bit.

I think I would definitely do the above just in case it causes a problem in your camper, it's better to be safe than sorry
