Thank you all for the help. I tried doing some more research on shellac itself. Specifically dewaxed versus regular and how well it adhered to paint. I had some Zinsser clear shellac on hand, and just for the sake of easy, was hoping to use it. What I learned is for every one person who says it has to be a dewaxed type, there is another who says it doesn’t matter. So I went for it. I love the look and feel. I only put one coat on so it was as thin as possible and rubbed it with OOOO steel wool. Came out great.
Thanks for the compliments.
