Hi Dale,

How thick a cut of shellac are you spraying?  Do you spray (instead of
brushing or rubbing) because it's easier with your set-up, or because of the
results?

> I use several coats of sprayed on shellac.   Then I put the bridge in the

to make
> look good.  Notches  also get shellac and varnish.
>   Works for me
