WOW, that was such a pointless and ill informed statement that I can't believe I said it. I just came in from the garage I was out there about 15 minutes, it was so ridiculously easy to rub the entire top down that I cant believe I would even consider trying just to apply a little more shellac over the old. I am letting the alky dry up and then I figure I have maybe another 20 minutes of work to do and all of the old finish will be stripped off. the top has a few dents I am going to steam out a bit and then I am going to see how badly water stained it still is. I would like to just shellac it with out a lot of sanding or staining.
Thanks again, and pictures of it when it is dry from this first strip.
