Humidity




To my horror, as I began to apply shellac to this reproduction globe stand this morning, the shellac turned white. There is so much moisture in this tropical air we are getting today on Cape Cod, it infused the shellac with water vapor. Same thing that happens when you place a wet glass on a shellac finish table top.

No need to fret, my trusty shop hair dryer drove the moisture away and returned the shellac to its clear self.
