What happens here

Begin by applying a water-based gel grain filler, such as Aqua Coat Cabinet Grain Filler, to the entire surface of the wooden furniture. Use a grain filler spreader, like a rubber or plastic squeegee, to firmly work the filler into the wood grain. Ensure all pores and imperfections are filled. Scrape off any excess filler immediately to minimize sanding later. Wear gloves for protection. Allow the grain filler to dry completely according to the manufacturer's instructions, which typically takes 1-2 hours.

Goal: Fill the wood grain to create a smooth surface for painting
