Bulls Eye Shellac Sealer, Amber, Quart | Bulls Eye Amber shellac, Quart. Fast-dry natural shellac seals & finishes wood, blocks stains & knots; classic warm/clear.

I bought this shellac to finish a wood shiplap wall. I wanted something that was easy to apply and fix. This delivered on that. I applied using a terry cloth covered sponge and a bottle. Very fast to apply and was able to touch up small spots without them standing out. It was important that this product didn't change color of the wood so I bought the un-tinted. In my opinion, this shellac enhanced the natural color of the wood without changing the color. Two coats on the walls provided the coverage I was looking for. First coat soaked in deeply and hit it quickly with a brillo pad. I had planned on buffing with the brillo after the second coat but it didn't need it. Dries super fast and allows for multiple coats in a short amount of time. Very happy with my purchase and will be using this product for other wood wall surfaces in my house, highly recommend.

This is some wonderful stuff! I had a wooden harp desk, which was a cool ash color. Unfortunately my harp was not a good match because it is a golden color. This was perfect to warm up the old walnut wood.

It works fabulous. Thank you for a fast drying great product

Zinsser's Shellac works great. It is a great product, will buy again.

Follow-up (19 July, 2017); I had another project that requires this shellac, and my experiences were much more positive this time around. However, the reasons are mainly because I actually got the right accompanying tools, of the proper quality, to make everything go relatively well. First off, despite having multiple grits of sandpaper that were even finer than what was suggested to use between coats of shellac, I went and got what they specified - 220 grit. I also got a "high quality" brush - something that can be used with stains, oil-based finishes, and so on. I also went with an angled tip - these seem to be par for the course with a lot of projects that *might* involve something like shellac. Also, despite having numerous types of thinners and cleaners, I got a can of denatured alcohol - this was also explicitly referenced in the directions for cleanup. While the results weren't perfect, they're actually pretty good. I really chalk up any shortcomings to my (still) limited experience using this stuff. Anyway - I think I mentioned it initially, but one of the big benefits of shellac is that if you mess something up, it's easy to sand it off and try again. It's also just an hour between coats, so the time lost can be minimized, too. ...As I mentioned previously, I'm primarily using this shellac on guitar necks. While many other users may not be using it on the same thing, something worth noting is that even though you can put it over top something like a poly or acrylic clearcoat, I would advise you to thoroughly sand off the clear first, unless you're doing something that is flat/horizontal, with no vertical cutouts/holes, etc. If you don't the shellac is likely to drip/sag/run down any vertical or rounded surface. Even though it doesn't stain the grain, I think the shellac tends to hold best if it's making good contact with the wood. Beyond clearcoats, some wood is also grain filled, so just be advised that you may have not sanded it all off - the grain fill will cause the same phenomenon as if there were clear finish on the wood - the shellac might drip/sag/be blotchy/etc. Original review (6 June 2017): This review might be best taken with a grain of salt or two. First of all, I want to highlight the big pluses - this stuff has a nice amber color to it, and you can actually sand it off or re-work it. Also, you can put on subsequent coats to tweak just how deep you want the amber effect. Also, you can put this on top of just about anything (seriously). Now - where my aggravations come in is with my specific projects that I use this for (guitar necks). Other than one success story (a spot repair roughly 2"X2"), I'm having a tough time getting this stuff to go on evenly, and w/o having to deal with clumps and drips. If I was just varnishing floors or tables, I'd probably have no issues. Part of it is probably simply a matter of me learning how to work with this stuff, so thank goodness it can be removed. I just want to highlight that for some projects, there's a bit of a learning curve. I've done a bunch of woodworking projects using Minwax or similar stains, and they went easy and fast - something to think about if you don't really want or need the amber color. ...Another thing to consider is that I've heard that some applications might need some kind of more durable clearcoating on top. That's just something to keep in mind - some folks like an all-in-one finishing product. My last complaint might not apply to others, but this can is friggin' BIG if you're just doing little projects here and there. The issue may not be obvious, but if you don't get the lid on tightly, you might find that the contents of the can have turned to a thick, unusable goo. For me, it's kind of a mental value lost thing - you finally have a project for this stuff, only to find that 80% of it is unusable...and if you really want to finish it with this particular stuff, you'll have to order another 1-qt can... I wanted to point out that it doesn't seem to be just Amazon that only stocks this stuff in the big 1-qt size. I initially passed on buying this from Home Depot because that's the only size they have it in, too.

This is about the same costs as in my local home centers, but it's not always in stock there. I really like having the option of either an amber or a clear Shellac for different projects. It is very easy to apply, seems to last a good while for 1-2 years. The clean up is pretty easy with denatured alcohol and a glass jar. Mistake are pretty easy to fix, and I like that its basically as food safe as the coating on M&Ms, which basically use a variant of this. Good value for money, and it does seem to dry clear. It also dries quickly. I also like that it doesn't have bad fumes.

This was my first time using shellac, and I learned a few things in the process. The can doesn't tell you this, but you should thin this product with high-proof alcohol to get good results (like isopropyl 90% or more). If you do not thin, or apply too many coats of overly thick product, it will increase the time shellac will take to properly harden. Luckily, it is also very forgiving and easy to correct mistakes. It does leave a very high-quality, ultra high-gloss finish on projects. I went over mine with 000 steel wool to reduce the mirror-like finish. Note that shellac does not last very long and should be used asap or results will suffer. This was my first time using it, and I like the product very much but will buy flakes next time and mix up my own. It's really as easy as adding alcohol and stirring.

Lo mejor para piso y secado en 10 min

Had to wait a while for delivery as i think it comes from the states, but its well worth the wait, especially if making Capt Eddie's "Shine Juice" as this is what he recommends. Will order again but probably well before it runs out!

Great product from a reliable supplier

The pack was leaking and I need an invoice
