Hello again!
I've got Howdens primed doors that have a routed detail.
https://www.howdens.com/doors/inter...d-internal-linear-door-obj-sku-family-dir1560
In many places the router has left some roughness - you know the kind of hairy edge you get when you cut something like hardboard. It's in most of the rebates, sometimes the whole length or width of the door. (Tried to photo it but can't get close enough).
I'm sanding with P320 Saitac sandpaper folded over the edge of a wide scraper, to get into the rebate and target the roughness. In places I'm getting back to the wood.
Am I best to sand the primer like this? Or do a coat of undercoat, then sand? (Am using Bedec water-based undercoat.)
And do I have to worry about the odd bit of primer missing, or will the undercoat bridge the gap? None of the bits of bare wood is more than 1mm, and probably still has a smidge of primer on.
Thanks folks
Mary
