Couldn't find any Irish Oil?
I'd give it AT LEAST a couple of days to dry before applying a
finish.
If you'd used boiled linseed oil it'd be more like a week - or so.
How's the X31 working for you?

Dewaxed shellac, commercially sold in paint stores as Zinnser Seal Coat,
will work as a fine barrier between almost anything. I also adds a
slight warm amber tone to white oak that many folks really like.
Comprehensive usage and compatibility instructions are on the can.
Anytime you're not sure, do a sample board on scrap. No scrap? Test on
the bottom.
When in doubt, use a barrier coat.
The bottom line is yes, an oil varnish should work fine over danish oil,
with the following cautions:
- Pigment removal: If the oil has a pigment in it (solids), the varnish
can break it free, allowing your brush or rag to redistribute the
pigment. This will show up in the final finish as brush marks or light
spots. Seal Coat will prevent this.
- If the oil is still oozing from the pores, keep wiping and wait until
it stops.
Have fun,
