Heh heh.. Okay, I've now definitely isolated the problem I was having before: the blue filler on the latest test piece has now turned into green. I guess it's reacting with the slighly yellowish tone of the shellac, and doing what blue and yellow naturally do when mixed. Bummer.

I could solve this by using a topcoat of spray water-based polyurethane instead, or possibly some other clear topcoat. Dunno if I'll bother though. I'm going to let it all sit for a while (again) now.

Cheers
