Final Post-Prime Inspection and Touch-ups

What happens here

After the primer has fully dried, perform a thorough inspection of the trim. The primer will act as a revealing coat, making any missed pinholes, rough spots, or slight ridges from filling and sanding clearly visible. Address any remaining minor imperfections with a small amount of spackle or Bondo, feathering the edges smooth. Once these touch-ups are dry, lightly hand sand them. Finally, vacuum and dust the entire area again to prepare for the topcoats. This critical final inspection ensures a truly flawless base for the finish paint.

Goal: Conduct a meticulous final inspection of the primed trim surface to identify and rectify any remaining minor imperfections before applying the final paint coats.
