Product descriptions from the supplier
Shellac flakes are natural resin flakes made from the secretion of the lac bug (Kerria lacca), an insect found mainly in India and Thailand. These flakes are harvested, purified, and dried into thin, brittle pieces (flakes) that can later be dissolved in alcohol to make liquid shellac, a versatile finish and sealant.
Here’s a concise description:
---
🧪 Composition & Appearance
Material: Natural thermoplastic resin (from lac bug secretion)
Form: Small, brittle, transparent to opaque flakes
Color: Ranges from pale blonde to deep orange or garnet, depending on refinement level
Solubility: Soluble in ethyl alcohol (ethanol, denatured alcohol, or methanol)

⚙️ Uses
Wood finishing: Provides a smooth, glossy, and protective coating on furniture and instruments.
Sealer/primer: Used to block odors, stains, and tannins before painting.
Food & pharmaceutical coating: Edible grades of shellac (E904) are used to glaze candies, pills, and fruits.
French polishing: Traditional method of applying shellac to produce a high-gloss finish on wood.
