I think it is about compatibility with each part. If you start with oil sealer, stick with similar paints and primer. I have found red cedar sealed with BLO difficult to keep paint on under epoxy clears, Adhesion is not happening somewhere.
Red cedar is an oily wood to begin with so it doesn't take much to keep water out. I know some have had luck sealing red cedar with thin epoxy and heat the plug blank up first.
