What happens here
After applying the first coat (or subsequent coats), allow the paint to dry completely according to the manufacturer's instructions. Drying times can vary significantly based on paint type, humidity, and temperature. Once dry, lightly sand any imperfections, dust nibs, or dried runs with fine-grit sandpaper (e.g., 220-320 grit) if desired, and then wipe clean with a tack cloth to remove all dust. If a second or subsequent coat of paint is required for optimal coverage or durability, repeat the spraying process as described in Step 2, ensuring thorough coverage and allowing adequate drying time between coats. This step is not explicitly shown in the video but is a crucial part of achieving a professional multi-coat finish.
Goal: Achieve a smooth, durable finish with multiple coats if necessary
