Should i put a varnish/finish on a flat latex painted coffee table?

I just painted an old coffee table with a flat latex paint, it seem to be picking up a lot of scuff marks and dust (the paint is dry). Should i put a finish coat of something on it to protect it? if so what?Should i put a varnish/finish on a flat latex painted coffee table?
The first mistake is using a latex paint on a piece of furniture.





A second mistake would be to varnish it.








Strip it and start over with a a quality oil-based paint or high-quality acrylic paint.
