I've already done quite a bit of googling but still have a few questions. My daughter has a large screen tv and I'm building her a entertainment center for it which will consist of 2 bookcase type towers with a shelfed bridge across the top. She wants it made from knotty pine/pondorosa pine and have a old pine look. I plan on using shellac, blonde for the first coat and garnet for the finish coats.
- I read where urathane can put put of dewaxed shellac (I ordered the shellac flakes from Rockler and neither the bottles nor the website say what it is). how do I tell if it's dewaxed.
- I plan on brushing it on since I'm not that accomplished with the spray gun yet and the jar said to use a 2lb cut for seal coat and 3lbs for finish coats. I've read somewhere in the archives to finish with 2lb. Where do most of you by your shellac, this stuff cost 6.99 for a 2oz bag. If I do try to spray it what should I cut it too. I work at a dealership and have a quality body shop gravity gun. And any other suggestions would greatly be appreciated. Thanks, Mike S. n0yii@sbcglobal dot net
