My name is Vijay Velji and I am the owner of ShellacFinishes. I have been a hobbyist woodworker for over 20 years building furniture for my home. Like most woodworkers, I too was swayed by the many finishes that promise a quick and easy finish. Fortunately I had the experience of using shellac in the past and very soon realized that there was no other finish like it. I started honing my French Polishing skills. As I got better I simply got addicted to this 100% natural resin. It is a green product and is nature's bounty. Shellac is a wonderful product that has been tainted by many myths. The two most common being its resistivity towards water and liquor. To a large extent this is untrue. Shellac's resistance is quite good over a short period of time. An accidental spill of water or liquor, wiped off in a few minutes is not going to ruin the finish. However it is not as resistive as synthetic finishes. But at the same time, it can be repaired easily unlike synthetic finishes.
The aim of ShellacFinishes is to revive shellac as a finish amongst woodworkers with continuous education and busting the well circulated myths. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions on shellac or its uses by writing to sales@shellacfinishes.biz
