Which clear finish for Cypress Porch Ceiling?

I'm doing a Cypress ceiling on a Porch (390 sq. ft.) and I want to
leave the cypress natural.

I'd like to avoid the initial yellowing associated with oil based
products. I've been searching the net for water based alternatives.
I've found a few, however I have no experience with any of the brands
let alone the specific products.

Some candidates I've found are:

Varathane Water Based Diamond Spar Urethane

Zar Water Based Exterior Polyurethane

Defy UV clear epoxy resin

I'm open to any suggestions, especially if you have experience with a
specific product.

Thanks in advance.

Ryan

The first two are superior brands and you can't go wrong. I'd say buy a
quart of each and do some tests. I think either will perform just as
well.
