What happens here
Begin by applying a wood grain filler to the surface of the furniture piece. The video shows a white, paste-like product, specifically 'Aqua Coat Cabinet Grain Filler', being spread onto the wood. Use a flexible plastic spreader or squeegee to work the filler into the wood grain, ensuring all pores are filled. Apply a generous amount and spread it evenly across all surfaces you intend to paint, such as the top and sides of the table shown in the video. The goal is to completely obscure the natural wood grain texture.
Goal: Fill the wood grain pores to create a smooth surface for painting.
