How many square foot the gallon cover?

I had an older ipe deck ~ 16 X 46 ft or ~ 740sq ft. maybe a little more porousthan new after stripping older finish. 3 gallons just did it with some areas stillnot fully penetrated. I have a fourth gallon for touch up which seems quite easy.I'm very satisfied with the rich color and grain exposure, very nice and went on easily with a roller and brush touch up. Best ipe finish I've tiried. May use it on someteak on my sail boat.

Can this be applied over Thompsons Water seal?

I'm not sure what type of wood you have, but I'm going to assume you have Ipe which is dense and doesn't penetrate well to begin with. I would not recommend applying the Ipe oil over Thompsons Water Seal. It's likely to just sit on top of the water seal and not be able to penetrate the wood. If the oil doesn't soak into the wood, it won't dry. When the oil stays wet too long it gets sticky and dust sticks on the surface. You end up with a big mess. To give you an example, we have an area on our deck that is under a large overhang. It doesn't get much sun and therefore doesn't need to be re-oiled as frequently. Our painter power washed this area and let it dry. Then put another coat of the Ipe oil over an existing coat of Ipe oil. It took months for the oil to dry and because of the wind and all that naturally blows around outside, many particles stuck to the oil and it ended up looking dirty and filmy.

What's the difference between the 100 and 250 VOC formula?

VOC is for "volatile organic compounds", which is a measure of how much solvent/toxin is released into the air as it dries. The maximum allowed in flat/latex is 250 g per liter, and for other paints, the federal cap is 380 g/l. The lower the VOC number, the better for your health. A con of using lower VOC paints is that they may not be as long lasting or of lower quality than higher VOC paints.

Can the ipe oil be used on eucalyptus furniture? if so, can it be applied over stain?

Eucalyptus wood works just fine with this oil. Cannot be used on wood previously varnished or Polyeurethaned. Should work absorbing into wood with weathered oil base stain-- we'd recommend a test area be done first to confirm uniformity.
