OK, I think I screwed up.
I made a Cherry hand dovetailed jewelry box for my daughter for Christmas. I finished it with many thin coats of SealCoat shellac with the final coat rubbed out with steel wool and wax. The result is too cold for my liking.
Can I warm up this finish? Could I remove the wax and put additional coats of a more golden shellac? I'd prefer to not use a wiping or gel stain and cover the Cherry figure and grain.
I'm concerned that by adding more shellac might make the finish cloudy. Whats the best way to remove the wax?
I'm ok with mixing shellac from flakes or adding dye to Sealcoat if a certain type is better than others.
I really appreciate a more experienced finishers advice, even if it's "just leave it be" and let the Cherry naturally darken.
Thank you
