<p>[QUOTE="David Kiehl, post: 4433504, member: 7353"]Joe, you have started to remove the shellac. Now you need to finish the job. You can remove some or all of the existing shellac finish by rubbing it down with 0000 steel wool and denatured alcohol. Once the wood returns to its clear/ non white wood tone, you will need to re-shellac the wood. The hard part is going to be if the shellac was tinted. If it was you can just remove all of the shellac and re-apply shellac or switch to polyurethane. But wait to see how others recommend repairing you piece.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
