You are right, spray paint will likely not adhere to tongue oil. After you paint it, you could use a good paste wax. It dries hard and can be reapplied if need be down the road. Looks good, especially if you are going for a natural look instead of something that has a furniture type finish. I just used it on my Padron build and have been really happy with it. Plus, it's always fun to experiment.

Thanks for the advice. I stayed away from the tung oil and just did a clear lacquer of the top of the spray paint. Here is the finished product:
