BINS is a pigmented shellac that still needs a traditional oil based primer like Coverstain over it for exterior apps if sealing knots.BINS actually sucks for any type of outside application and that's why most folks seal knots with epoxy.But knots in a plug are really not a concern...an oil based product thinned with a petroleum based thinner will do the trick.Dry time is useless if you don't seal the wood properly.
Penetrol(or boiled linseed oil) and Naphtha,60/40.Plus you can always add a little Jap Dryer to it if you're really concerned about dry time.
Bottom line...if the word Shellac is involved don't use it.
