The materials needed to put a glass finish on a guitar are simple and cheap.
Equipment includes; glass jars, a piece of wool, cotton cloth like clean white t-shirt, grain or denatured alcohol, and shellac flakes.
The shellac flakes are mixed with pure alcohol to make the shellac at a rate of 1 oz. by weight to 8 oz. alcohol.
After six sessions of rubbing on the shellac, 3/4 oz of shellac has been spread evenly over the whole guitar. After the guitar is finished, less than two ounces will have been added to the guitar's weight.
No electricity is required to apply this finish. No aerosols are released into the air.
