Powder Glaze Kitchen Cabinets

What happens here

The presenter prepares the spray gun for clear coat application, ensuring the material flow and spray pattern are properly adjusted. He emphasizes wearing a respirator when spraying, even in a booth, but foregoes it for teaching purposes. He then applies a first clear coat to the cabinet door, which is hanging vertically from a PaintLine PSDR rack. He explains that spraying vertically allows both sides to be sprayed at once, which is more efficient for full sets of cabinets. He mentions applying a third pass to ensure complete coverage. After the first coat, he inspects the door for imperfections under a light.

Goal: This step involves applying a clear protective coat to the glazed and cleaned cabinet door, typically spraying vertically for efficiency, and then inspecting it for any remaining imperfections.
