To 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 helps

Philly :D
