I doubt that the finish is shellac, but the milky surface, kind of, looks the way shellac does when it gets soaked. The alcohol, if the finish is shellac, will take it off. More than likely though, it will probably be lacquer. If the alcohol doesn't do anything, try some lacquer thinner. That should remove nearly any vintage finish Remove the finish before trying to sand the water stains out. |
