Bruce, I think it best that you don't put shellac on your scrotum sac.

Hey there folks,

Thanks again for all the helpful info, everybody!

Based on y'alls advice I decided to develop my own "proprietary finishing technique."

Due to legal reasons I can't say what I'm using. All I can say is that it involves mixing sticky yellow flakes with denatured alcohol. I did mine at about a two pound cut and it worked great. Almost as lovely as shellac, which I don't use. :D

Haven't had time to take pics yet, though.

Dan

Just be careful not to press too hard against the buffing wheel.

Is the above technique best ?
