Hello,
I am new to woodworking and am making a chest with walnut carcass with maple drawers. I am looking for a finish that stops the maple going yellow. There is an article on fine woodworking site:

A Nonyellowing Finish for Maple - Fine Woodworking Question & Answer (http://www.finewoodworking.com/how-to/qa/a-nonyellowing-finish-for-maple.aspx)

I found one finish but it is in America:

PolyAcrylic Blend Water Base Top Coat | America's popular green wood topcoat | General Finishes (http://www.generalfinishes.com/retail-products/water-base-top-coats-sanding-sealers/polyacrylic-waterbase-topcoat#.UPMUZ4letRF)

Would greatly appreciate ideas and thoughts, thank you!

Matt

G'day Matt.

MinWax Polycrylic might be what you want - very similar to the product you linked to. Comes in gloss, semi-gloss and satin, aerosol cans and 273ml or 946ml cans.
Globak Woodcare have it here: - Minwax® Polycrylic® Protective Finish (http://www.globak.com.au/POLYURETHANE/Minwax®-Polycrylic®-Protective-Finish/44/productview.aspx)

Bunnies might carry it too, since Globak also supply them with MinWax products.

Just by chance I ordered some from Globak today myself.
