I've applied the shellac as a sanding sealer to some raw timber (New Guinea Rosewood cabinet doors), lightly sanded back, and it's delightfully smooth! :-)

I've got some newly made raw New Guinea Rosewood kitchen cabinet doors I am planning to finish.

Hi -- I'm planning to finish some solid timber kitchen cabinet doors (NG Rosewood) that I've ordered from a cabinetmaker. I've done a bit of reading in this forum, and I just thought I'd ask to see...
