The preparation
There are two possibilities here:
When is the preparatory cut recommended?
You should do this quite time-consuming work if the surface is already weathered. The material is thereby optimally prepared for the subsequent treatment with a varnish. Even if you want to use a less pigmented glaze, you should sand off the wood so that the natural wood grain is visible again.
When is it enough to apply primer?
