Eliminate the grain or keep the grain? Painting oak kitchen cabinets! #remodel #homerennovision

So, what's the difference between eliminating the grain and an open grain look? So, I'm using a grain filling primer from Rener 648 and it fills the grain. Now, people were saying, "Oh, I can still see the grain." So, this is achieving an open grain look. We want to see the grain. We want to see the profile of grain uh cuz it's nice wood. So, we don't want to eliminate it and make it look like a piece of MDF. But what we do want to eliminate is all the pin holes and stuff that will look unsightly. You know, after you sprayed your top coat on there, if you want to 100% eliminate the grain on an oak cabinet door, you're better off probably just investing in buying new doors than spending the time of just continuing to load, you know, more and more primer on there to get it eventually 100% flat. What looks really cool is the grain itself and that open grain look. And that's what uh Rener 648 primer does. Catalyze it and it will also stop tannon bleeds. So these oak doors will look absolutely amazing with an open grain look, not grain eliminated.
