What happens here

When reaching the extremes or edges of the door, extend your spray slightly beyond the edge and 'blur' the finish. This technique, also known as feathering, helps to create a seamless transition and prevent hard lines or excessive paint build-up at the very edges of the painted surface. Repeat this process for all edges to ensure a smooth, uniform appearance across the entire door.

Goal: Avoid heavy paint build-up or harsh lines at edges

Tools and materials

What they say

see it has a great finish, beautiful all over the door. Now, when I was spraying this, your first pass, when you overlap 50%, that first pass won't have two passes on top. So I did the first pass twice. It had this angle as a 45º angle. I know that when I went straight down, it didn't cover as well as I thought. So I slightly rotated the gun so that it was pointing at a 45-degree angle. It's very subtle, very light. And then when I came here I changed it slightly so that it pointed at that 45g angle. Furthermore, when I went to the opposite side, I did exactly the same thing. When I reach the extremes, I go towards the end, I come out and blur it a little. I come this way, I just blur it a little. See? I have gone too far.
