What this video didn't show was a close up of the final process. It would be nice to see if brush marks were visible after it dried? I have painted my door with four coats using a soft foam roller, and it still leaves streaks and overlap. Possibly the paint drying process is too fast and this might be the cause of a patchy paint job. All I know is that painting a steel door is not as simple as this video may indicate.

Add Floetrol to the paint; it allows acrylic ants to level better.

Wow. He is using Sherwin Williams (Color To Go) sample paint. Which technically is needs to be topcoated by actual paint itself. It says on the can itself.

Was this a fiberglass or steel door? Was the white color there because the door was new or was that a primer coat? I have a fiberglass door with 10-yr. old sun-bleached gel stain fading so do I have to strip the old stain or can I wash it as directed and paint over it? Are you using oil based or water based paint?

I've done a lot of painting, but this guy is no pro. He acts as if the door will be on display in the Louvre! Also, I think most people would paint the door while it's hanging on the house.

Wrong. Professionals stand the doors up, use airless sprayers and are done in minutes. No worry about brush strokes etc.

Ronda, the plastic part that contains the glass must be primed first using a primer that can be used for plastic. When painting doors like this for my customers, I mask the area first around the plastic window frame and then use Rust-Oleum spray primer to paint the plastic before applying paint.

No. A good exterior paint is it’s own sealer. Besides, exterior spar urathene is oil based and will change the color.

roller?
@Slowhand871

Foam roller. I would suggest practicing with it first as it is sort of slippery loaded with paint but soon smooths out. A 4-6" foam roller gives a great bristle free finish.

Have it sprayed in oil based paint if you want it to be its best you can definitely roll it foam roller but like the other person said play with it first or you will leave lines all over it. On doors better to have pro apply the finish. If you want it to look its best. In my opinon.
