Get Rid of Wood Grain on Cabinets! Factory Finish Cabinets EASY!

What happens here

After the initial application and scraping, allow the Aqua Coat to dry for approximately one hour. Drying time can vary depending on temperature and humidity; the presenter mentions cranking up the room temperature to above 70 degrees Fahrenheit to accelerate drying. Once dry, proceed to apply a second coat. The technique remains the same: apply crossways, then scrape with the grain, ensuring to remove all excess. Continue this process for any face frames or other parts of the cabinet. For intricate areas like the routed edges of raised panel doors, be very careful not to push the filler into the crevices unless you intend to caulk them. Use a smaller tool, a credit card, or even your finger to carefully remove excess from these areas. The video demonstrates applying two coats to small samples.

Goal: Achieve a smoother surface and ensure proper application on all parts, including intricate areas.

and i'm just going to continue working right along working on these edges this process isn't a super fast process this does take time to do so you want to make sure if you're a professional painter and you're doing grain fillers make sure you bid it correctly and i typically on an average size kitchen i'm typically charging 500 extra on top of my bid if i got to do any
