42+ How To Sand A Kitchen Table Top. In this video i will show you the easy to follow steps i use when i sand a table top. When sanding, sand the entire table with each grit before moving on to the next grit.
I will be inlay a celtic/roman style pattern and this can work on a side table, coffee table or a dinning room table.
Sand the table in the direction of the grain to achieve a smooth finish. No sanding needed if you use chalk paints (annie sloan or miss mustard seed are two brands of the chalk paint that i've heard work extremely well). Once the cracks are filled, i sand the top again with my orbital sander to remove any excess glue and putty. One mistake i made was to fill the whole bench top in and then i had to cut half of it away to fit the sink !
