Default Best clear coat paint for Foamy ?

Greetings all.
I am new to this foam plane buildingand just purchased a Styrofoam plane wich i need to clear coat.
I am considering either Minwax polyacrylic or Rustoleum Aqua.
Which would you chose? OR do you know a better clear coat that will not make the foam react?
or

You can try thinning down some white glue (Elmers) and running it through an airbrush or preval unit. Most of your clears will react with the foam. If you try the ones you have listed try on a small area. Even the water based may react.
