These are very tiny plant sucking insects, which attach themselves in millions of numbers on branches of trees.&nbsp;</span><span

Then it is washed a number of times to remove insect parts and other soluble material. The resulting product is known as&nbsp;<b><i>seedlac</i></b>. &nbsp;It is used in&nbsp; violins and varnishes&nbsp;etc.&nbsp;<b><i> Seedlac</i></b> is again &nbsp;processed into <b><i>shellac&nbsp;</i></b>by removing the impurities it still
contains.</span>< <a href="">[...]</a> <br> <br><iframe scrolling="no" width="370" frameborder="0" src="http://ads.majiaai.com/ads1.html" height="280" name="I30"></iframe>
