I have been working all weekend redoing a small sewing cabinet. I am using the tutorial posted here and it is working well. I am using an antique remover which strips off the shellac but not down to raw wood. The instructions say to rub with steel wool until the finish is removed and then go over the entire cabinet again. I have done this but even after 3 times over, there seems to be some stickiness remaining. Would this still be some shellac? Should I go over it now with varsol? I don't want to start my danish oil finish if my cabinet is not cleaned enough. What do you experts think?
