Sand Detailed Profiles and Edges
At 4:26 in
Sanding and Painting Stained and Lacquered Cabinet Doors
What happens here
For detailed profiles and edges, switch to the 1/2 inch sanding sponge on the power sander. This thinner sponge allows for better access into the intricacies of the door's design, preventing flat-spotting while ensuring an even scratch pattern. For areas that require even more precision or for a final touch on edges, use an EkaDiamond flexible hand sanding sponge. This sponge offers superior control, allowing you to carefully sand right up to delicate edges without altering their shape. After sanding, run your fingers over the surface to check for any missed spots or areas that need further attention. If you notice any 'burn-through' to the bare wood, do not attempt to strip the entire door; these small areas can be addressed during the priming stage.
Goal: Thoroughly sand detailed profiles and edges, achieving a consistent mechanical scratch without compromising the door's shape.
