Update pic this is it on the final coat of iodine.
From trial and error it is not good to mix iodine and shellac I had to strip that off.
I brushed iodine on and that took me about 6 coats to get it right the stuff dries quick and gets thick and pasty I had to keep putting coats in to get it dark and to to remove drips. I added 2 coats of shellac last night but I put one of them on too thick so it's not smooth I'm gonna knock it flat with some 220 tonight and add some more shellac.
