www.woodfinishingsupplies.com is where I shop.

Type by what tint you want to impart to the wood, and how much fussing you
want to do to get there. You'll be dewaxing anyway, so why not let the
machine do it? I like the super and ultra blonde types, preferring to tint
with oil or dye.

Never sprayed, but it's so easy to body, level, and polish with mock French
polish technique (no filler), that I think it would take a pretty big
project to convince me to do so.

So I've decided to try shellac, the flakes and mix my own. I did a quick
search on google and came up with several suppliers. Anyone have a
recommendation for a brand and type? I plan on spraying the shellac as a
top coat over natural and painted surfaces. I'm looking for something
that is fairly clear meaning the blonde type. I don't think the shellac
needs to be dewaxed.

I have a woodcraft and a rockler. Rockler is hard to get to, woodcraft
easy. Prefer buying online but I've seen funny shipping charges on the
denatured alcohol, so it might be best to find that locally.
