This is part one of three (kind of boring) videos on grain filling. But what is important with this series is that he will probably answer a lot of your questions, and most importantly, you get to see how how the pros do it.

Don't forget, you can save the old grain filler-when you scrape it off the cabinet, toss the excess back into the can.
Wonderful link! Thank you so much. I applied grain filler on Saturday morning and it was a disaster. I did not use the method shown in the YouTube video. In the process of sanding off the grain filler residue with 320 I took slight amounts of stain off. The result was an uneven color. What I'm going to do now is sand the entire piece down as gently as I can to an even color then gain fill with the above method and re-stain. I think this will give me the result I'm looking for.
