I just finished dry fitting some shelves with 1x4 cleats for a new pantry and I’m ready to paint the cleats to match the walls. I countersunk the screws with the plan to fill the holes before painting.
Just thinking about future potential renovations as well as other projects. What are the options to remove the cleats in the future if I don’t have access to the screws after filling and painting?
Is it possible to remove the filler for a clean removal?
