Q:Could this product be used inside a breadbox which is leaving a pine scent and taste on my bread and does it leave an odor after it dries?
by|Jan 3, 2023
1 Answer
Answer This Question

A:  Thanks for reaching out. Zinsser Bulls Eye Shellac Traditional Finish & Sealer is not suitable for application inside a wooden breadbox, it is not FDA approved for food contact. The only product we offer that is FDA approved for food contact is Watco Butcher Block Oil. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Watco-1-Pint-Butcher-Block-Oil-in-Clear-241758/316130833 - Rust-Oleum Product Support 6

    Q:Put a wood stain on kitchen cabinets 2 weeks ago but still tacky. Will a coat of clear shellac fix this? Any ideas, thanks
    by|Dec 21, 2022
    1 Answer
    Answer This Question

    A:  Happy to clear things up, Derrick! To ensure proper drying of Rust-Oleum Zinsser Bulls Eye Shellac, it must be applied to a clean and dry surface. The tacky stain can prevent the shellac from properly drying. If the stain was a penetrating stain and all the excess was not wiped away, that could be the cause for the stain remaining tacky. We recommend reaching out to the stain manufacture on how to best correct this. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 3

      Q:Will this change the color of stained wood?
      by|Dec 20, 2022

      Answer This Question

      A:  Thank you for reaching out! Our Zinsser Bulls Eye Shellac has a natural, amber hue that will cause the color of bare or stained wood to shift slightly. This color shift will increase as more coats of shellac are applied. If you would like to apply a clear protective finish over the stain without altering the color, we recommend applying our Varathane Ultimate Water-Based Polyurethane. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 2 https://www.homedepot.com/p/Varathane-1-qt-Clear-Satin-Water-Based-Interior-Polyurethane-200241H/100169146

        A:  In our experience, this did not darken or change the wood.

        by|Dec 22, 2022

          A:  Yes. This will add a slight yellow tint to the wood.

              Not the easiest to apply due to it dries quickly, but the results are well worth it. Sands easy between coats, and gets an awesome high gloss.

              I have used Zinsser Amber Shellac before and am happy with it. I needed a clear shellac for the chestnut vanity I am restoring, so I bought Zinsser Clear. It really makes the grain pop. One big plus with these products is the fact that it dries so quickly. I'm quite happy with it.
