Sticks fine if you use dewaxed shellac. Shellac is the accepted odor
barrier. If you want to use something else go ahead. But I wouldn't
recommend an "outdoor polyurethane" for interior use.

you cant scrub it off, only seal it in.

walls absorb odors, seal walls with bin

Which is shellac.

or kilz

Which is specifically formulated to replace shellac

after scrubing then
paint with whatever you want.

concrete can be sealed with outdoor polyurethane too
