The main reasons for Surface finishing are:
Protection - Protects the surface from dirt, sun (UV rays), water, fungus, rot, mould, chemicals etc.
Durability - Strengthens the surface and makes it more durable.
Appearance (aesthetics) - Highlights or improves the appearance of the surface to make it more attractive and appealing

There is a large range of products and techniques used for surface preparation, along with an even larger range of finishing products and methods.
Correct selection of the right technique and finish for the job is critical, and can mean the difference between high quality joinery, and damaged and unusable materials.

Why is preparation so important? Generally, the more preparation you
do, the better the finishing process and the better the overall finish of the job.
PLANNING AND PREPARATION
![Page 5: Surface finishing version 1](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062307/556be49bd8b42a65458b4598/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Cover all work areas with a suitable, non-marking material such as carpet, rugs or felt.
Clean up all tools and materials that are no longer needed to provide a clear work area
Select appropriate P.P.E. for each task (e.g. dust mask for sanding, respirator for spraying lacquer)
Determine tools and equipment needed and position close to work area
Clean away dust and debris from areas that will be used for finish application

Set up drying racks, trolleys and benches close by, as required for each task
Check Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) prior to using any finishing materials and applications to ensure correct use and safety
Determine the most suitable finishing methods for the material you are using
Plan each step with consideration to time restraints
Use work method statements to identify the correct sequence and minimise any safety hazards

Before surface finishing can commence, three questions should be asked:What is the most suitable method of surface
preparation?What is the most suitable finish for the
material?What is the most suitable application
method for applying the finish?
Answering these questions depends on a number of considerations including:
PLANNING AND PREPARATION

There are generally four steps in surface preparation for most surfaces and finishes.
1. Remove all traces of moisture, dirt, grease, marks and dust
2. Fill all cracks, holes, joints and defects
3. Sand all areas of the surface to a smooth finish
4. Remove all traces of dust from sanding

- scratches
- insect damage Marks

Fill all holes / cracks prior to sanding
Start with the least-coarse grit possible
Move up through the grits Cover benches Sand till all marks are
removed

Clean up is crucial before and after finishing Avoid overspray and dust Clean brushes, rollers and spray equipment. Dispose of waste safely – Environment
