you may use bims/pumice stone for that. make your finish sanding with it. the dust of the bims fills the grains and will become transparent if you
apply shellac.

i gather the dust and mix it shellac or apply the shellac after sanding?

Take slightly diluted shellac and dab the shellac soaked cloth into pumice (bims powder). Polish with circular motion, and the pores are filled.
