What happens here

Carefully apply painter's tape, specifically green FrogTape, around the edges of any glass inserts on the door. Ensure the tape is pressed down firmly to create a clean, crisp line and prevent any finish from bleeding onto the glass. Use a utility knife to trim the tape precisely if necessary, ensuring a perfect seal where the wood meets the glass.

Goal: Protect glass from the wood finish.
