thanks everyone for your suggestions 
i was the cold blooded shop today and got chatting to a guy who builds vivs and he uses yacht sealant!he said as long as i leave it all open and air it well it will be fine.
sounds a bit random to me but hey ho you live and learn

if its for the joints in the wood, then I use acrylic sealant in my vivs, its a lot less 'smelly' than silicone and water soluble before it cures so I'm guessing less toxic before it sets? |

Ah yes they are  I have no idea to be honest about sealing a lot of wood. If you use melamine you won't need to seal it though as the finish is already water proof. |

sorry if i'm being dim are they just for sealing the joins though?he needs something to coat the wood so it doesn't absorb any fluid. |

Aquarium seal will also work. |

a silicone sealant should be fine, best to read the label it should say that its none toxic. hope this helps. |
