Can you use the standard varnishes/sealants or do you need something specific to enamals?

Most spray sealers these days should be fine. If in doubt, check the tin... they'll usually say what they're suitable for.

Alternatively, grab something that doesn't matter (old jar or pen or the like), slap some paint on it, and seal it and see what happens.
