Default Is it possible to 'spot' shellac?

I have a 42 cabinet that's in nice shape over all, although the veneer is lifted on the bottom in one place. I read to use an old credit card to push in glue, then clamp, so I think that's okay.

The bigger problem, I think, is a ring on the top where the finish is completely gone. I wondered whether Glenn's technique with denatured alcohol and shellac would work on just that spot? Could I kind of feather in from the areas that are okay? Or is there another way to restore the shine to that spot without redoing the whole top?
