What happens here
After allowing the primer to dry completely, the user sands the primed areas of the furniture using an Ekasand 3x4 rectangular orbital sander. This step is essential for achieving a perfectly smooth and even surface, as it removes any texture or imperfections from the primer coat. The sander is connected to a vacuum system, as indicated by the hose, which efficiently captures sanding dust, contributing to a cleaner work environment and a superior finish.
Goal: Create a smooth and even surface after priming.
