Wax and steel wool is the plan for once it's cured. I finally finished the Shellac last night. Phew! It feels so good to get that part done! It's been a couple weeks of one thing after another so it took much longer than it should have.
Now I will be antsy in the wait time before I can finish it up. I personally don't love the look right after the shellac. It is garishly shiny IMO. (Hubby loves it lol) Once it's waxed and rubbed down with the steel wool I know I will like it better. I did that on my hand-crank's base and it really gave it a nice mellow glow.
