This content is about a process for preparing a wooden surface for coating or painting. The first step is to make sure that all hardware mounting holes are in place and that the surface is free from defects. Next, all bare wood should be coated with unthickened epoxy to protect it from moisture and provide a stable base for the final coating. Dips, dints, and voids should be filled with a mixture of epoxy and low-density fairing filler, and the entire surface should be sanded to a smooth finish. This process, known as hot-coating, is important for ensuring that the final coating will adhere properly and provide a durable finish. By following these steps, the wooden surface can be prepared for painting or coating, and will be protected from moisture and other environmental factors that can cause damage over time.
