SANDING:
Sand raw wood or veneer with 150 or 180 grit to remove any mill glaze or oxidation. Sand MDF with 320 grit sandpaper on any machined, saw marks, edges & routed-out areas prior to applying primer. Sand primer with 320/400 grit sandpaper or fine/super fine sponges. Two coats can be applied back-to-back without sanding between and still achieve good adhesion, a quick scuff is required if more than 4 hours elapsed between coats. All of our primers must be sanded same day as topcoat application as they cure quickly, if the primer is sanded and left overnight it will require a quick scuff with maroon scotch brite or a super fine sponge for adhesion before applying topcoat.
