What happens here
To achieve a truly uniform and grain-free finish, multiple thin coats of Aqua Coat Cabinet Grain Filler are typically required. Reapply the filler using the plastic spreader, working it into any remaining visible grain. After each coat, allow it to dry completely, then sand lightly with fine-grit sandpaper (e.g., 320-400 grit) and clean off all dust. The video emphasizes 'MORE COATS FOR LESS GRAIN,' indicating the importance of building up thin layers to progressively fill the wood pores. Continue this process until the surface feels perfectly smooth to the touch and no wood grain is discernible.
Goal: Repeat the application and sanding process for additional coats of wood grain filler until a completely smooth, grain-free surface is achieved.
