I'm currently making a buck to make a mould for a diffuser. Based around a wooden construction with a fibre board to get a good curve. I am wondering what a good sealer for this would be.

The base board is MDF... having already taken a mould for another part using MDF as a base I know that this will not absorb the resin. However I do need to get a reasonable finish to this area on this occation/

I have seen on other forums that some people use Bonda G4 water seal... which isn't easy sourced. Are there other alternative such as a concrete seal? What have others used... 

I also need to finish off the edges of the diffuser with a fillet or newplast before moulding commences so it will need to either go over or under this.

a slightly pointy spoon can be great for making variable fillets. Go in the direction of the back of the spoon (convex side). The angle you hold the spoon at changes the radius of the fillet BigGrin
