just brush on 3-4 coats of shellac with a very soft brush,
i use a ladies powder brush with gaffa tape wrapped around 1/2 the brush bit to firm it up.
buff between coats with fine steel wool, and run a magnet across the surface to pick up all the steel nibs.
give it a wax and voila
you'll find lots of finishing advice on the finishing forum
