Easiest Finish to Use

[@johnmiller9219]

looks perfect for Fender neck amber. how do you apply it?

[@neatpleats11]

Just starting to use Shellac and adding tint to get a variety of colors.

Howdy Brother! Thanks for taking the time to explain your finishing techniques. By the way, your dust collection system in the background looks awesome.

[@chillzone188]

Howdy! Yea it's a great addition to the shop. It's a cyclone CV1800. Jay Bates actually just did a video on his CV1800 a few days ago. You should check out my table saw station video because I built all the tools around the dust collection system in that video.

Can you add wood dye to this mixture?

[@dmattinman]

I'm not to the end of the video yet so maybe you answer this, but do you have to put more coats on because you are thinning the shellac?

[@dmattinman]

Ok. Now to the end. Doesn't the butcher block wax dull the shine of the shellac?

[@508phonewiresuckers]

Matt Inman yes but u put furniture polish on after and u get ur shine again.

Sorry but this Zinsser shit dries too fast., pulling hairs from my brush and the spray is worse

[@chillzone188]

Hey Bob. That's the same problem I had when i started using Zinsser too. Once I diluted it with denatured alcohol to just about 1:1 then it's much easier to use and flows nicely over the work piece. If you find a drip mark take a paper towel and soak it in alcohol and the shellac drip will rub away and blend in. Hope this helps! Send me a picture of the work piece when it's finished!

Thanks ,Ill try that next. It's a bare wood slab exterior door and I'm staining and shellacing the interior for show and painting the exterior to match the trim scheme.2 coats brush done, 2 coats spray done. One more coat then I re-hang it.

Stuff is garbage. It cakes up. Impossible to use

[@508phonewiresuckers]

@Rick P. it is a nice color but ive tried and had had others try it and the end results always look bad. i sprayed it once and the second coat melts the first coat so it never darkens
