Similarly, does shellac dry clear?After the shellac has cured completely, a coat of wax protectant can be applied. Shellac normally dries clear. However, some shellacs will dry with an amber, brown, or red tint. It should be specified on the container what tint the shellac will dry.Secondly, is shellac a good wood finish? Shellac is the easiest of the classic finishes to apply. It produces a very fine, mellow finish, and it accentuates the natural grain of the wood. It is especially attractive on walnut, mahogany, and fine veneer woods. It polishes well and is the basis for the traditional French polish finish on very fine furniture. Beside this, does clear lacquer yellow? They have the general properties of nitrocellulose lacquers with the exception of being absolutely water-white – meaning they will not impart an amber shift when applied to light woods and will not yellow over time. Catalyzed varnishes are usually water-white and non-yellowing because nitrocellulose resin is not used.What clear coat will not yellow?Minwax makes a simple solution: Polycrylic. This clear poly is available in satin, semi-gloss, or gloss finishes and can be applied over water-based or oil-based paints and stains. The blue label makes it stand out among the other clear coats we sell at the Store. Pat offers a great suggest in using Polycrylic.
