What happens here

Thoroughly sand the cabinet doors in multiple stages to strip away old finishes and open the wood grain for the filler. Start with 80-grit sandpaper to remove any deep imperfections or old finishes. Follow up with 120-grit sandpaper to smooth the surface, then use 220-grit sandpaper for a finer finish. This progressive sanding ensures a smooth base and optimal adhesion for the grain filler and subsequent paint layers.

Tools and materials

  • Dust mask — To protect from inhaling wood dust
  • Safety glasses — To protect eyes from dust and debris
  • Sandpaper — Intermediate sanding to smooth the surface after coarse sanding
