Done this in the past, combinations of clear and amber shellac get hues in the middle of the two. Makes sense. First coats soak up most, so I used clear first for a few coats, then 2 coats of amber to add a little amber hue. Newbaum's is thicker, which means more coats than Tressostar or that nifty Japanese cloth tape Riv used to sell (which was/is my favorite). So, 5 or 6 total coats got a nice thick coating of shellac without too much plastic sort of feel. I was going for a military green sort of hue, got pretty close. And of course a rainy first ride was fit as it muddled up everything. Just fine with me.
