Sand the Primed Wood Surface

What happens here

After an initial coat of grain-filling primer has been applied (which allows the grain to begin filling), the surface needs to be sanded to further smooth out any remaining imperfections or raised grain. Use an orbital sander equipped with a dust extraction system to minimize airborne dust. Carefully sand the entire surface of the cabinet door, ensuring all areas are smooth to the touch. This step is crucial for achieving a uniform, refined look in the subsequent priming stages. The goal is to remove any pinholes or roughness that the initial primer coat may not have completely filled, preparing it for the next coat.

Goal: Smooth the initially primed wood surface by sanding to remove imperfections and prepare for subsequent primer coats.
