I Built a $12,000 Outdoor Patio Sectional for $997

What happens here

The creator prepares a paint sprayer with Sherwin-Williams primer, specifically designed for exterior use. He then applies a thorough coat of primer to all the wooden components of the sectional. This step is vital for sealing the wood, preventing moisture absorption, and ensuring that the wood grain doesn't raise, which can lead to a rough finish. Priming also provides a uniform base for the final paint coat, contributing to better adhesion and a more vibrant, consistent color.

Goal: Prepare the wood for painting by sealing it and preventing grain raise.
