Should work fine. I seal all my cedars with Minwax poly, and have used Fletchtite and Duco with good results.

Superglue will also work with polyurethane formulations. The middle grade in thickness, not the watery kind or the gel. Much quicker than the others.

Been using Minwax poly and Duco cement on my wood shafts for years.  Never had a problem.  Just take some 0000 steel wool to the shaft to rough it up some and works like a charm.
