Great video, Garrett! Do be aware that there are several different types of sanding sealers (vinyl sealers, shellac sealers, etc...,) and not all of them are appropriate for outdoor use, or compatible with certain finishes. Read the labels, and if you're not sure, contact the manufacturer's help line or tech support to get their advice. I use sanding sealers of various types on almost all of my projects that are going to have a clear coat (lacquer, urethane, shellac, etc...,) applied to them. For painted projects, I use an exterior grade primer that's compatible with the finish paints.
The sealer he used in this video is specifically not rated for outdoor use. Mainly that sealer is used for floors/furniture before polyurethane. Whatever he paints it with might make it last longer but still not a great choice. Came here to say exactly what you said.
Sir … i opened my cnc shop with 1325 cnc router and co2 laser machine… all because of ur classess … i cant thank you enough and i will donate to ur channel once my work flourishes little bit
ChasingTheAdventureOutdoors, That's not a stupid question at all! Sanding after sealing helps create a smooth surface and promotes better adhesion for the paint. If you skip this step, you might end up with uneven paint coverage or peeling down the line. It's all about getting that perfect finish!
Hmmmmm. If I pre drill my holes and put the screw in the hole, problem solved. I really would have liked to see how the paint worked out using the sealer.
I feel like a &ick saying anything but just a heads up those are interior screws and if your using them for the sign build they don't hold up well out in the elements so be careful. I'd hate seeing all your time invested fall apart because of a hardware issue
@IDCWoodcraft I hate being the guy that says anything negative and I know you used them for keeping the wet material off the table in the video. Just didn't want you to see you get screwed in the long run because of a hardware issue if you were using them in the sign assembly as well.
@IDCWoodcraft interesting howyou can get such great advice by just putting it out there. And from people with experience from all over the world. Thx for being humble and still learning and teaching us what you have learned. 😊

You are right. I failed to mention that properly
@marklindsaycnc yes, I Guess I didn't make the point strong enough that it is only one way to seal wood. Thanks for clarifying

tariqalbadawi9889, you are so welcome my friend. Keep working hard and learning everything you can!
I'm going to look those screws up here in 🇨🇦 - I just might start using them exclusively!
LYTOMIZE_Woodshop, good call brother! Happy CNCing.
Very cool, Sanding Sealer is a great product!!
Thanks for showing us how its done. 😃👍👍
Joe, you are so welcome brother!
This may be a stupid question but why do you sand again after you seal it? Can you not just paint right over the sealer?

I've used Shelack as a sanding sealer for years. Give it a try, I buy flake and make my own cuts.
hassleoffa, good idea! Shelack is a great choice too.
What’s the difference between the Hog and Beast bits?
Hi John. That is covered on this article

Mr.Peabody961, you absolutely could brother! My apologies my friend, I definitely should have included that.

HowToFromMeToYou, good point brother! I will look into this more for exterior use. Thanks for sharing your perspective.
