I have use brush-on shellac for the last couple projects. Definitely better (and cheaper) than spray for grain filling. I do have some Behlen water based grain filler and I plan on using it this time on the top. Messy, but faster on really open grain like this new veneer. I'll still use shellac on the sides I think.
I suppose to go down into the 40s this weekend but back up to the 70s later next week. Good luck!
