I presume yopu meant that figuratively. IMHE mixing shellac with
water immediately hardens the shellac. Not the sort of thing you
want to happen in the trap below your drain.


You're right ... but use hot water and household ammonia if you do happen to
be cleaning up shellac equipment in the sink. That way you will have a
better chance of surviving a SWMBO's wrath.
