Wonder if it is caused by water in your Shellac mix?
I will ask a few old timers I know to see if they have an answer for you..
Thanks, Dingo.

I've tried varying the "cut" of the shellac, but without any noticeable effect.

"Rubbing" levels out the worst of the bubbles, but it will need many "layers" (shellac on, shellac off) to fix the problem.

If the problem is purely temperature-related: (i.e. heat dries the shellac skin before the ethanol can escape),
I guess I can wait until winter for a "final coat."

If it's purely a finish problem, I guess now is the time to glue in the neck... "How hard can it be?!"
