Would this product be good to for coating a wood wine box for a dog bed? Or should I use the paint on shellac instead?

If you are wanting to paint and use the shellac as a seal since paint really doesnt need anything over it....that would work....I use the shellac as a covering over areas that arent going to get much "traffic" Anything with a lot of wear/tear I would use a urethane....But a good paint, I have always thought of as a sealer and a protection not needing urethane or a lacquer/shellac, If you do put a coating over the paint. dont apply it for at least 10 days to make sure your paint is dry. Depending, of course, on the type of paint. Other wise the paint could remain uncured under the coating....I found that out the hard way.

I used it on my wood deck and it's wonderful don't have to get down on your hands and knees and paint it on like you would with the liquid shellac

If your base is poor, the final results will also be unsatisfactory. It sounds like a short cut to disaster with the poor adhesion of the shellac. Prep the base to a SMOOTH surface by stripping or sanding away any loose shellac. Sorry, Cabinet Coat is a great paint but it still needs to be applied to a solid, not a chipping surface.

Yes, you should be able to use any base of varnish, water or oil based based, shellac, lacquer, polyurethane (water or oil based).Pretty sure that it says that in the description.

I used three coats on a 4x8' piece of primed plywood and still had some, maybe a third of a can, left over. I had to thin the paint before the last coat with an ounce of water, to make sure it went on smoothly. I used it for a ping-pong table, and it's held up well. You are probably going to want to use two coats at least. My guess is you could just make it stretch. Sand lightly and dust between coats.

I've used it many times over varnished wood, and had very good results. Most people, these days, seem to skip the middle steps of sanding and wiping down, and are pleased enough with the results. I prefer to do it old school and reap the benefits. Even 1-2-3 will adhere better if you break the gloss, first. Your end results are only as good as your preparation. If the chair is old, it may be shellac and not actually varnish. Zinsser also makes a shellac-based product called B-I-N. Both work really well.

I only used it for painting the underside of my truck and exhaust. I no longer have the can. Sorry. I would read to see if it can be used on indoor furniture, for instance, to determine if it is indoor friendly.I think other types of spray paint would be more appropriate.

It is Orange Shellac. It will darken the wood. I would take a sample piece of the new wood and experiment. Give the knots a double coat.

I used this over a oil based product. The Generals Gel Stain, oil based. It worked very well on a bathroom vanity. I am referring the wood cabinetry portion, not the top counter. I use a polyacryllic top coat on some water based paints, if I am not using a wax finish. I use a lot of chalk paint to re- purpose furniture. I will be trying a new paint by Amy Howard, for that I will use her wax for my finish. Amy Howard wax dries to hard finish without a "melt factor".

I used acrylic paint and clear coat and it worked well, but make sure you wash it with degreaser and use a primer for best results

I would never paint this. It looks natural and is very dark brown. I don't think that paint would stick very well, it would be smelly inside, and why try to change a perfectly good crate.

It should work just fine. Make sure to keep the product moist on the wood. I use an inexpensive paint brush to apply and in a few minutes, when it looks like it is drying, I give it another brushing and then in a few minutes scrap a spot to test if it is ready to remove. I put some stripper in a separate container (plastic coffee can) so as not to contaminate the original container. This will extend the shelf life of the original container and it will last for years for future projects.

I use these two products on a paint enameled dining room table. Also, I use on acrylic contemporary end tables - works beautifully. I would try it on your panels, it should work. The polish will protect from water as water will bead up. The product is marketed for boat polishing.

I put this over Bedliner paint... I suppose it would work either way.. Just a preference on which top color you want.. This is light gray and a liner is black... I liked the light color better...but it definitely works!!! It is great product!!

It's not designed for that application this is a silicone used in freezers and glass case refrigerators that contain food. I suppose you could use it and don't think it will harm anything but I don't believe its paintable. Why not a latex caulk from Loews its cheaper maybe 3 bucks or so

I put 1/8 cup in a standard spray bottle and filled the rest with water before spraying furniture down. I didn't see that it helped at all so I would maybe make it a little bit stronger than I did. Keep in mind that if it's to strong it has a bad vinegar smell though.

I'm not too sure....I guess you could spray paint it, but I think the quality would lack after that! I have espresso furniture and bought it knowing it was a cherry/walnut and it blends pretty well without having to stain or change the color and it really is a nice finish. it was super easy to install, durable and had plenty of room for keyboard and mouse. I was alittle apprehensive (just cause of the color) but am really happy with it

Okay so I totally trust J. Lesley answer because I havent used it. BUT! look at the rubbermaid handheld reveal. I used it lightly on my base boards (super high traffic, painted gloss) and they look like i REPAINTED them! awesome. and let me say we have three, big, messy dogs. good luck
