URGENT - fastest way to protect wood?

Hello everyone!

It has been a long time since I last visited this forum but I am back. :-)

I will have a stainless steel countertop with integrated sink made by a local metal shop.

My carpenter has built a plywood substrate. The top will be covered by metal but parts of the bottom will be over cabinets, i.e., exposed. I want to apply some protection to the bottom side before I take it to the shop tomorrow morning. That means, I have less than 24 hours and need the finish to dry by 7 am.

What would you advise to do? Clearly, only Home Depot, Lowes, and Walmart are open on Sunday.

The cabinets are painted. Should I use a regular paint, "milk paint" or white-wash for underneath the countertop?

Which of the "big box" store paints is of decent quality?

TIA!!!
