What happens here

Once the wood filler is completely dry, sand the filled areas flush with the surrounding surface. Use a fine-grit sandpaper (e.g., 220 grit) to smooth out any rough patches from the filler and ensure the entire table surface is perfectly smooth. After sanding, thoroughly clean the table to remove all dust and debris, as any leftover particles can affect the paint adhesion and finish quality. The video shows further sanding after filler application.

Goal: Achieve a perfectly smooth, clean surface ready for primer.

Tools and materials

  • Orbital Sander — Sanding the filled areas and overall surface
  • Sandpaper — Fine sanding for a smooth finish
  • Tack cloth or lint-free cloth — Wiping off sanding dust
