Water-based poly's I tried but don't like it at all. Except on colored stains where I wanted a clear finish. W-B doesn't "Amber"
Spray Lacquer, Quick, but not enough prtection and doesn't amber.

Add Japan dryer to speed up drying process and eliminate dust settelment. You can take care of that by sanding between coats.
If you want the amber look, next time try to oil the wood first and apply lacquer.
