Once the caulking and wood filler are dry and sanded, it's time to prime the wall. Apply an even coat of primer to the entire board and batten surface, including the MDF and the exposed wall sections. A paint sprayer can provide a very smooth finish, but a roller and brush can also be used. Allow the primer to dry completely. The video indicates this step was done on a separate day from the painting.
