This is the fifth video in a detailed series featuring important aspects of finishing, sanding, gluing and clamping a traditional solid wood door. https://AskWoodman.com/
In video five Allan talks about the term “scratching” and why it’s important to etch inbetween 2 or 3 coats of Waterlox. Scratching is when you lightly sand using 220 or 320 no load paper. Scratching removes raised grain in highly figured wood.

Be sure to check out the other videos in the Solid Wood Door Series. The complete series starts with explaining how to build a stunning tung oil based finish using Waterlox Original. It also shows detailed instruction for how to prep the surface, how to glue and clamp mortise and tenon joints using PC7 and various clamps, how to make blow out repairs, and multiple sanding techniques and philosophy. As a bonus, you’ll see my very unique door holding system that spins effortlessly on a rotisserie style mechanism to ensure perfect finish application.
