What happens here

Once the first coat of primer is dry, lightly run your hand over the surface to check for any rough spots or raised grain. If needed, very lightly sand these areas with a fine-grit sanding sponge. The goal is not to remove the primer but to smooth out any imperfections. After sanding, apply a second coat of Zinsser Peel Stop Triple Thick primer, following the same brushing technique as the first coat. Ensure even coverage and allow this second coat to dry completely.

What they say

right. So my primer is dry now. So I'm just going to, you know, light light just rub my hand over it if I need to. If I feel anything rough, like if it raised the grain anywhere, made the wood, bare wood, feel fuzzy at all, then you know, you just hit it lightly with your sanding sponge. So, just going to rub my hand over it and feel it. It feels just slightly rough. And you don't have to get overly aggressive. if I don't want to sand my primer off, but a lot of times it'll like you'll raise the grain on the wood, make it kind of feel fuzzy and rough. But that all feels pretty good cuz I sanded it, you know, really good. Now I'm going to do my second coat of primer. And I don't need to do a second coat over where it's primed. Just where it was raw wood. And it'll help even feather the uh bare wood to painted surface, you know, even better. So, so it's one of the things that this product does is it helps feather out those edges.
