Martin,

I think it's just a matter of dissolving the shellac
flakes in denatured alcohol and brushing it on in
rather thin coats. This seems like an odd thing to
brush on a camera body as it's not the most durable of
finishes. Do a web search for "shellac flakes" and
you'll find a lot of info.

I stripped the old vulcanite off my M2, in preparation
of a leather 
cover instead.  I need to source some shellac,
preferably with some 
instructions on how to use it.  Anyone got any
pointers?
