Message: <blockquote data-quote="Philly" data-source="post: 225142" data-attributes="member: 290">WHWTo get a decent build of shellac I usually apply three or four coats one after another. Leave to go off and then apply another set. Give a light sanding to remove any marks, etc, and then apply another set. Four sets like this usually give me a pretty good shine. If you are still having streaking problems you may want to mix your own shellac from flakes - easy to do . And you can then control the strength of the mix - a stronger mix lets you build up coats quickly.Shellac also sinks down once it truly dries out - leave a few days to cure and you'll see previously obvious marks disappear.Hope this helpsPhilly <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
