We first heard about Synthetic Shellac earlier in the year when Sherwin Williams announced it here.

I'm curious about the smell factor... Can it be any worse than regular Shellac???”

I’m painting corble/brackets for a portico so it’s a relatively small project. I didn’t think the smell was so bad. The dried paint smells oddly sweet. My issue is the brushstrokes won’t lay down
I need help with the same brush stroke issue. I am primer kitchen cabinets and I did a test patch and the very expensive paint does not fill in the brush strokes. I have even sanded a bit to see if that helps, but seems counter intuitive if I need the bonding power. Help.
A lot of chalk in it. You will need to sand. There will be a lot of fine dust so wear a ventilator
