What happens here

Begin by thoroughly assessing the door for any nicks, dings, or other imperfections. The presenter demonstrates how to use cross-lighting by opening the door to better illuminate and identify all damaged areas. Once identified, apply Bondo glazing putty directly onto the smaller nicks and dings using a plastic spreader or putty knife. Ensure the putty fills the indentations completely.

Goal: Identify and fill all door imperfections with an initial layer of Bondo glazing putty.
