What happens here

Using a medium-grit 3M sanding sponge, thoroughly sand the entire window casing by hand. The primary goal is to remove as much of the old clear coat and stain as possible, smooth out any existing nicks, scratches, or rough edges, and create a uniform surface that is ready to accept new stain.

Goal: Remove old finish and create a smooth surface.

What they say

Hide

caused a lot of damage, water damage and it's worn out the clear coat on the window. And we're actually sanding this window. We're just using 3M sanding sponges and then we're going to stain it with a BAC stain and let that dry for about 2 hours. And then we're going to clear coat it with a Minwax water-based oil modified clear coat. And as you can see a close-up view of this. You can see we've actually sanded it and trying to get down and sand as much of the stain off and clear coat off as we can and smooth out the edges. Again, there's a lot of nicks and scratches on this window and those will all be covered up when we actually wipe our BAC stain on it.
