How to Prime and Paint Closets in New Construction Like a Pro
What happens here
Once the applied primer has dried, the user sands the primed wooden shelves to achieve a smooth surface. This is done using a 3x4 Ekasand sander, equipped with Filmtek sandpaper, which is specifically chosen for this task. A vacuum attachment is connected to the sander to effectively collect dust and debris generated during sanding. This step is crucial for removing any wood fibers that may have become stiff or raised during the priming process, ensuring the shelves are perfectly smooth and ready for the final paint application.
Goal: After the primer dries, the wooden shelves are sanded using a specialized sander and vacuum to eliminate raised wood fibers and create a smooth finish.
