Eliminate the grain or keep the grain? Painting oak kitchen cabinets! #remodel #homerennovision
What happens here
Once the sanded surface is clean and free of dust, prepare to apply the Rener 648 grain-filling primer. It's crucial to use a spray gun for an even and smooth application, as demonstrated in the video. The primer should be catalyzed for optimal performance. Mount the cabinet door onto a specialized painting stand, such as the 'PaintLine' stand shown, which allows for easy rotation and access to all edges. Don a respirator mask and gloves for safety. Apply the primer in thin, even coats, allowing adequate drying time between coats as per the manufacturer's instructions. This primer is designed to further fill any remaining pinholes, create a smooth surface, and also prevent wood tannins from bleeding through the final paint finish.
Goal: Apply the specialized grain-filling primer to achieve a smooth, open-grain surface and prevent tannin bleed.
