What happens here

After the primer is dry, lightly sand the primed surface with very fine-grit sandpaper (e.g., 320-400 grit). This step is called 'scuff sanding' or 'denibbing' and helps to remove any minor imperfections, dust nibs, or unevenness in the primer coat, creating an ultra-smooth surface for the topcoat. Clean off all sanding dust thoroughly.

Goal: Smooth the primer coat for a flawless topcoat application.

Tools and materials
