It's getting painful to read some of the posts on here.

Did you know Shellac is made from resin secreted by the female Lac bug?? :D
Seriously??? I always thought that Shellac was only found and distilled in Shellac-Astan, from the Shellac trees?? When Shellac-Astan was invaded they got beat so bad the victors went around telling everyone that they had "shellacked" the enemy!! Everyone thought that it was so funny the term is still used today....LOL
To this day the folks from Shellac-Asan are called "Shellackers", that term is also still used today but it's been modified down to "Slacker", they never lived down the shellacking that they got when their country was invaded.
