Thanks Barry.

Applied the SealCoat with a dry cloth and the humidity was uncommonly dry - at least for
Houston.

When applying - should I leave the material on the surface or try to rub in / buff out?

Regards,

Doug

1. Presume that after applying the product it should be worked into the surface
and the excess is rubbed off. Is this correct?

2. There are several small patches that have a faint whitish appearance - and the
surface is smooth to the touch.

Per Robert's recommendation - do not plan to sand and will apply two coats of
SealCoat.

Are these white patches normal? Will they disappear once the lacquer top coat is
applied?

Work FAST! Shellac dries quickly. Don't tip it off, as you would with
varnish.

The whitish patches may be "blushing", which is embedded moisture. The
second coat of Seal Coat should eliminate it. Was there water in brush?

Get the blush out before applying the lacquer. Don't move to another
step until you've got the current step right.
