I would paint the inside of the cabinet with flat black paint, use a primer first if you have to. Don't use shellac in spite of what some sources say, especially on the outside, lacquer will not bond well to shellac and could peel off. Shellac and varnish may work together but not shellac and lacquer.
Regards
Arran
