Finish over feast watson liming white?

[m0rg5]

Looking for recommendations for the best finish over feat watson liming whited 3mm pine ply walls in a pantech truck campervan conversion.

I've trawled the web, these forums and elsewhere and found no clear answer, beyond:
Liming White should be top coated with Feast Watson Clear Varnish, Scandinavian Oil, Floorseal Oil or Floorclear.

I'd use one of the above to finish, but for the facts that the "Scandinavian Oil" is a FW polyurethane blend and haven't seen good reviews, the Floorclear that they are presumably referring to is out of production (and replacement terrible reviews) and I don't want to use their overpriced (poly) clear varnish.
Other options I've seen at Bunnings all seem will darken the wood, and no clear indication if compatible with FW liming white.

I'd prefer something with low VOC's, with ideally mould resistant properties (I've seem mention of adding teatree/clove to wood oils - is that a thing?), I like the idea of oil and wax, but am also a reluctant realist and will do whatever is viable.

Interior, a lot more ventilation/dryer than yr typical camper, want to keep the lightened pine effect and not yellow it.

Any experience, tips?

Is that the product? It looks like a oil based stain. Therefore you can use a water based poly or if absolutely dried/cured, an oil based finish - oil, poly or hardwax oil. If you dont want to use a feast watson product or want to avoid water based polys you probably have to get a sample and experiment unless someone has specific experience with this product with another oil based finish

Haven't you got that the wrong way around? An oil-based stain only needs to be 'absolutely dried/cured' if you're overcoating with a water-based finish.

Yep that's the product.

As attractive as the wax routes seem, the water based poly seems the realistic route.

Any tips re: low VOC's, bang for buck products?

Yep I suppose thats true as well. Im not expert on this topic but I know an oil based stain can be effected by an oil based finish from the solvent in the finish!

Sorry cant offer any advice on any water based products.

I used a liming white finish previously on a pine lining board ceiling in our house.
Tried the oil based stain version

But had better results with water based stain and varnish all in one.

Using that varnish OVER the existing liming white seems viable, did you that on any pieces? Results?

I only ever used each of the products over bare timber, I did not try and use one over the other.

I tested some matte Cabot's cabothane water-based on some ply, over the liming white, and I like it so I'm going with that.

Wish me luck!
