Oil (alkaloid) primer and latex (acrylic) top coat is a great combination.

However, a oil based semitransparent stain is not the same as a primer.

Primers are designed to bond to the wood and for the top coat to bond to the primer.

Whereas stains are designed to color the wood. You then apply a sanding sealer or shellac, and then a top coat of varnish.

Now, if this is one of those deck sealer products that is stain and wood protector all in one product. Then no top coats are needed. I would just give them a few coats of the stain and be done with it. They dry with a water resistant finish and would make it hard for the acrylic to adhere.

The worst that could happen is the acrylic would not bond and you will have pealing paint.

These chairs have a lot of layout lines and radius on them. I did not erase the pencil marks or wipe off the pink chalk marks from the plaining steps. The parts still have the labels on them as which part was cut out and which of the chairs that there is. Bottom line they are beautiful but looks like a kid went crazy with the wood.
How soon before the paint would peel?

I'd be careful I LOVE oil based anything for durability. If I HAVE to use latex topcoats, oil goes underneath. That said and as mentioned, the product you're using isn't meant to have a coat on the surface of it. Primer is designed to be topped over.
