You will need to sand it to provide a good anchor for the acrylic. If the wood is completely sealed and coated with tung oil sand at 320, otherwise prep at 180 as you would bare wood.

Shellac makes a great barrier coat, tends to stick to just about anything, and is the ideal undercoat for any kind of lacquer. Unless the thing is dripping with tung, I'd mix up some fresh shellac and wipe on a coat to see if it dries well.
