Sealing the inlay is probably a better job anyway. How does shellac react to water? We used to use it as a sanding sealer on oak when i was restoring historic buildings. 60m2 of shallac'ed oak floorboards & i was high as a kite!
No pics I'm afraid.
Hope no one was smoking around all that shellac
My googling showed de-waxed shellac to be quite water resistant and actually seals against moisture better than most synthetics. I'd keep it well away from alcohol based aftershave tho.
Common sense would be to dry the scales if they got wet and not use them as a coaster for hot coffee.
