Whether you choose homemade and pre-made shellac, prep to your preferred consistency. Shellac is used in various concentrations, or “cuts,” that are mixed with denatured alcohol to determine the thickness of each coat.
Test your mixture on a scrap wood. Because shellac dries quickly, allowing no time to smooth out drips, it’s wise to test the consistency you’ll be working with before starting your project.
Sand your wooden surface and brush or wipe on a coat of shellac. Properly sand the surface of your piece and wipe with a dry cloth to remove any dust.
Buff with sandpaper to smooth. Sand any raised wood grain or uneven globs of shellac with 400-grit sandpaper. Alternately, use a piece of superfine (#0000) steel wool to buff between shellac layers.
Recoat as required until you’re happy with the finished look. At least three to four layers of shellac are required to achieve an ideal finish.
