no pop tops, but i have had an unopened can of Zinsser shellac spring a leak in the bottom...quite the mess in the cabinet
It was sure odd, and the shellac is fine, used it, dried fine, clear. Probably will toss the rest, dont want it popping again
Well would hate to open it and get blasted...but it dried fine looks good.

I have had the same experience...a very aggravating mess! At the time I thought it was simply an unlucky incident, but it seems this is an issue that many of us have experienced. All of which makes me wander it Zinsser is using cans that are too thin and/or aren't coating the can's interior with a compound resistant to the apparent corrosive affects of the shellac!
Just my two cents, but I have tried these Z products several times. The effort needed to get a professional looking finish landed the almost full can to be thrown away each time.
There are so many professional options, leaving a superior durable finish done in less than a fraction of the time when compared.
I've had the leaking can but was gonna put the shellac in a glass jar; now I'm wondering if it will be too much pressure for the jar. This will be a shellac flake in alcohol cut.
1.) Spray compressed air HVLP with disposable cups. Approximately $1 to spray all day long or just a few minutes. A few minutes to clean the gun faster than a paint brush cleaning.Can you elaborate on your findings please. I know that you often use a spray lacquer and are you comparing shellac to lacquer?
