Default Gel stain question

I've almost finished construction of a liquor cabinet for myself g. About
6' x 36" x 16 - constructed of both oak ply and solid oak. I plan on using a
dark mahogany gel stain on the piece.

Never used gel stain before and a few questions come to mind -

1.)Do I need a shellac sealer coat( or ANY sealer coat) on oak?

2) Instructions say to do a small area at a time - will this not produce lap
marks where the edges meet?

BTW, I bought it at Rockler - I believe the brand is General Poly Gel stain.


Thanx,

Vic Baron
