Shellac is a good option over polyurethane in dry locations. Used this on a diy wood closet organizer system. Makes the finishing a lot faster due to it being alcohol based.

It works very well. But currently shellac has disappeared from the market. so it is unavailable anywhere. I found this gallon at the back of the shelf, it did not show on inventory. so good luck finding.it. But not a Home Depot fault!
