Get buttery-smooth finishes by filling wood grain with Renner 648 grain-filling primer. #howtoshorts

What happens here

Once the first coat of grain filler has adequately dried, the surface needs to be sanded smooth. Use a 3x4 Echa sander with 220-grit sandpaper for this step. Follow up with a fine half-inch Echel sponge to ensure a perfectly smooth and uniform surface, preparing it for the subsequent coat of grain filler. Sanding between coats is critical for eliminating any remaining texture or imperfections.

Goal: Smooth the first coat of grain filler to prepare for the next application.

What they say

Hide

There's no thinning required now and the wood grain on oak cabinets, filling it up is simple and easy. I'll be sanding in between coats with my 3x4 eka sander with 220 eka and a fine half-inch eka siphon sponge.
