4) As I understand it, the only time you need to worry about dewaxed
shellac is if you're going to use it as an undercoat and put another
finish on top. The other finish won't stick well to shellac with wax
in it. If you're going to use shellac as the final coat, don't worry
about whether it has wax or not.

According to Flexner, the wax in the shellac will lower the finish's
resistance to water.
