Now we’ve had new double glazing installed, the existing window boards look naff.
I’ve started sanding down using 80/120 grit. There’s at least five different coloured layers before I reach bare wood. There are “hot spots” where the I’m down to bare wood and surrounding areas still have the very top layer of paint. Is this down to uneven wood/uneven paint layers or my sanding (using an orbital sander)?
I will go for a satinwood finish. Is it worth sanding the primer in 240 grit? What about the first layer of satin? Aim is for a smooth finish, without brush strokes visible.
