I see mention about fish-eyes and worry of contamination because of residue left behind. I agree that this can happen as it’s sometimes hard to get every bit clean.
I use a product called “Seal Coat” by Zinnser, after I strip, sand, and stain with golden oak dye stain. This is shellac made for this purpose and it saves you from having to mix it. Wash coats of shellac have been recommended for years.
I’ve grain filled over the Seal Coat and used pigment stains with no issues at all.
