What happens here

Before applying paint, it is crucial to prepare the surface for optimal adhesion. The video creator sanded the railing cap using a 3M medium sanding sponge to create a roughened surface. Following sanding, Jasco De-Glosser was applied to further strip the existing glossy finish, ensuring the new paint adheres effectively to the previous coating.

Goal: Ensure proper paint adhesion by preparing the surface.
