MARK BLOCKER: Hello. I'm Mark Blocker from Expert Village. In this segment, we're going to cover the final sanding of our finishing the door jambs. And for the sake of being repetitive and redundant, basically, we're doing the exact same thing we've done in the previous steps, only we're doing it very lightly. You want to use a good, clean piece of 220 or higher grit sandpaper and it's just a very light, feathery touch, just to small those imperfections out. And I'm sure if you've noticed in your project as you're feeling through the stages of sanding that it's gotten much, much smoother and--so we just need a real light sand, any imperfections, and it'll be ready for our final coat. So, after we did the finishing up, just a tip or reminder: don't forget to wipe it down, make sure it's clean before you put that final base coat on. So, please stay tuned, watch our next segment on "Applying the Final Coat".
