The nice part about shellac for a clear coat is that it's reversible. It's also non-toxic, inexpensive and easy to work with. It's also authentic.
I wouldn't think you'd need to tape anything off if you're applying it with a cloth. See Glenn's tutorial on renewing/repairing the shellac on a machine for instructions.
