How to apply shellac
Prepare the area for finishing by sanding it smooth.
Use a coarse-grit sandpaper to go over the entire piece. If there is an old finish applied to the wood, make sure to sand it away completely.

Options:
+Use sand texture spray around the entire piece to provide a nice, smoothing finish. Keep sand in a bucket and allow it to dry overnight.
+After sanding, wipe the piece down with a clean cloth to remove any dust and dirt. Pour some of the shellac into a separate bucket.
+Because shellac is porous and will not flake, repeat the process if the old finish has already been sanded away. You will need to put on some thick rubber or mineral build-up gloves to protect your hands.
+This will save you the effort of removing the old finish once you finish the wood. Sand the weathered area in the same way that you sanded the rest of the wood, instead of sanding in straight, sweeping strokes.
The answer is:
After sanding, wipe the piece down with a clean cloth to remove any dust and dirt. Pour some of the shellac into a separate bucket.
