I will be staining doors made from pine and want to avoid the blotchy look that is so easy to achieve with that wood.
I have never tried it, but heard you can use Shellac as a sealer coat prior to applying the stain.
So my questions are:
1. What pound cut?
2. A single coat or multiple coats?
3. Sand after or between coats?
4. How long to wait after last coat of shellac before applying the stain?
