Cleat Coat Recommendation?
Can any of you recommend a clear coat (water-based preferred) that does not yellow over time? Thanks for any tips!

What are you clearing?? If your want to clear over photo etched emblems and such tiny parts I've
Used clear nail polish with a tiny fine tipped brush to seal in my scripts and letters on cars that have such letter/badging. Works GREAT and when it dries you cant see anything with the naked eye!

I'm sealing decals. Would fingernail polish pull off the printing?

That will hurt your decals. I suggest KRYLON CRYSTAL CLEAR. It's made for decal sealing.
It won't yellow, is moisture-resistant, dries in minutes and gives you a gloss finish. It can be bought thru Micro mark and if not mistaken at WallyWorld (WalMart)
