Let your sniffern be your guide, love the smell of the good stuff.G


I mix it in a squeeze bottle, as it needs to be continuously shaken as
it's used. Squirt it on, rag it evenly, wipe again 10 minutes later
with a dry rag, ready for any top coat the next day. You can also
sand it and recoat, if desired.


I'll keep this one handy, thanks.

BTW, what ratio shellac?

1 BLO, 2 turps, ? shellac.

i use 1:1:1
