I always take the door knob off. Because no matter how good one can paint around it, when the knob is removed it gives a more pro finish.
@K.L.A.S8 жыл бұрын
RebllionDog larry Yeah I've always been told that you take door furniture of in prep. Also unscrew ceiling roses, sockets and light switches to avoid ruining them.
@1bundy118 жыл бұрын
Use painter's tape if you're not a skilled painter. Don't take off the knob. Also,always paint in the direction of the grain. Whether it's a door,or a piece of trim.

I totally agree with you Larry. Plus, while the passage sets are removed you can clean any paint off them from previous inept painters and point that detail out to the home owner. I've gotten repeat business and referrals because of pointing out all the old paint I've cleaned off of door hardware, switch plates, etc.

The mark of true professional! Alway remove the handle. The handle stays clean, proper film build around the hand hold area, no brush marks, and saves open time of paint.

This. Dude specifically recommended a roller, implied he was going to show us a roller, then never showed us a roller. I mainly watched this video to try to answer my question to myself of "should I paint this whole door with just a brush or not?" There are other questions too, like sanding in the little decorative cuts where old paint may be chipping or wearing away, not to mention techniques and recommendations for masking or otherwise avoiding paint getting where you don't want it to go. This video is... not exactly informative. It seems more like, "how someone who has never had things go wrong while painting thinks painting a door must be easy."

@kaiwonsmith59118 жыл бұрын
Remove the hardware and prep (dust, wipe, sand/de-gloss as needed) before painting. Open the door about, oh, halfway and paint the striking edge of the door. Then wedge a roll of masking tape, an old shoe, etc., between the other face of the door and the jamb. Now paint the panels, then the stiles and rails. Done. Like a pro. ;-) Also, the best paint for doors and trim is Sherwin-Williams Pro Classic latex enamel. Bam! lol

I also apply paint with a brush around the recessed squares. I then apply paint to the flat areas with a brush and then immediately roll it with a sponge roller before the paint dries...brush in one hand, roller in the other. If you wait too long and the paint starts to dry you could peel the paint with the roller. Gives a better smoother professional finish.

I just replaced 8 brown pine 1970’s doors with these new white paneled doors and new hardware. Wow what a difference already, but they are “primer white” and now I have to paint them. Since it’s all new hardware I’m going to take it off, and actually take the doors down and do it on saw horses in the garage because I have cats and a dog that I don’t want brushing into a wet door. It’s going to be more work but the door manufacturer says to paint all sides to “seal” it so moisture doesn’t get in and warp the door over time, and the only real way to paint the bottom is to take it off the hinges.
