Anyone tried this?

I'm trying to match an existing pine coloring and found and old post
referring to a hand rubbed finish using Tea followed with blonde shellac.
The first tests are very promising and I'm curious if any has tried this
that has seen the results of this method over time.

Nope. I've been speermentin' with tea stain for awhile, but haven't
been using shellac. I'm liking the results so far.

I thought so but trying to narrow down his posts in a search is a daunting
task...

Actually there is a lot of discussion regarding alternate stains. I am
experimenting based on a much earlier post (3/93). My interest is more of an
over time how does it last. I get the tint I want now but have concerns
about 5 years in the sunlight.

Yep.

have concerns about 5 years in the sunlight.

Then I'd say ask some of the craft forums. They are probably the
people with the most experience.
