@DaruDhillon 3 года назад

@@meancheeto hi Jose, I would keep three things in mind when rolling. Having the right high density roller is key. You want to maintain a wet edge. Make sure you are not applying too much paint with your roller. Your coats should be applied lightly so that no roller marks are visible. In the video I’m also going over areas where I have rolled lightly again with the roller to get it looking perfect. I hope that helps.

A reminder that your prep work is the most important step in painting. Clean, sand and prime, when needed, to ensure a durable, long lasting finish. I also prefer not to use enamel as they are prone to yellowing. You can also remove your hinge pins and door first before removing your hinges.

@Painmaster212 2 года назад

Great tips given but I'd recommend an enamel paint which will cure rock hard and stand up much better to everyday use then the standard latex based paints. Won't get that paint sticking issue that latex gives off either when it comes to doors.

@DaruDhillon 2 года назад

That's a great option and a durable one too. I've found that a homeowners are reluctant to use Enamels in their homes due to off-gassing and VOCs. I'm in Toronto, and even though Enamels have improved their VOCs, they still have a reputation for off-gassing. Thanks for the tips, it's great to hear from you!

@ee222 3 года назад

great video. love the screw hack! got a question. if latex takes 30 days to cure, are you saying that we shouldn't re-hang the doors for 30 days to prevent sticking or can we get by with re-hanging sooner? if so, what would be the recommended # of days or hours before it's safe to re-hang? BTW, just found your channel and have only watched a couple of your videos, but between the smoke detector video and this one, i'm going to sub and bell! thanks again!

@DaruDhillon 3 года назад

Thanks for watching and subscribing! You can rehang your door once the paint is dry to the touch. During the cure time, use your door as normal. With any painted surface you want to avoid washing, wiping or cleaning the paint during that time. Latex paint needs this time to become more durable and to have a stronger bond with the door. Washing, wiping or cleaning a newly painted surface damages the durability of the paint. If a surface gets dirty just wait to clean it. Thanks for the great question. I hope that helps. 😀

@maribethcastroparada9676 2 года назад

Hi! I love your videos. I wanted to diy paint my wood garage doors. Will a latex satin paint also be durable for garage doors? Thanks so much😊

@DaruDhillon 2 года назад

Hi Maribeth! Acrylic latex is the most popular choice of exterior paint for professional painters. It’s my go-to for exterior siding, doors and trim. I really like the Emerald line from SW, Duration is all a good choice. It’s flexible so it withstands expansion and contraction better than other types of paint plus it’s durable. For wood, I’d sand and use a good quality primer so you get good adhesion. Thanks for watching. I’m sorry I didn’t see your question sooner Maribeth. ⭐️

I have really dark almost black cabinets. The builder did not caulk around them or fill nail holes. There are large gaps between trim and wall. Can I caulk around already painted cabinets?

@DaruDhillon 2 года назад

Caulking will improve the look and is often used. Run a bead of caulking around your cabinets where they meet your wall. You can use a paintable caulk to blend into your wall color too if needed. If the gaps are too large and you don’t like the look you can always use a thin piece of trim color matched to your cabinets.

@philh1245 Год назад

When you painted black did you also paint the door trim same color? how you like the black? I have 7 doors to paint, I'm trying to see the best way to tackle them in my garage, do I paint 1 door and wait for it to dry and then do second door using the drilling method you show or just place all 7 face down paint, wait for it dry and then paint the other side. I'm thinking satin black, but a bit scared.

@DaruDhillon Год назад

I painted the trim white but it’s a personal choice. If you have a lot of doors to do do you can lean them against a wall to paint one side and then flip them once dry. Simple and fast

Great video.. I want to paint my door the same color as you did, should I use a white primer first, or are there different color primers I should use ( ex . In the same shade as the paint) and my door has a lot of paint peeling from it, so i have to sand it down first. What grit sandpaper should I use ..? Thanks

@DaruDhillon 2 года назад

If you are painting your door a dark color you can use a tinted primer. My paint supplier will tint paint to match (fairly closely) to the paint I’m using. In this video I’m I using white because it’s what I had on hand and it worked well too. You should always sand your door down so that your primer and paint bond and adhere really well to your door. This will ensure a long lasting finish. All the materials I used are listed in the description. Thanks for the question Victor! 👍🏽

Question----shouldn't you use oil based paint? Other than cleaning brushes, what is the advantage in using latex?

@DaruDhillon 2 года назад

That’s a good question RCB. Homeowners overwhelmingly want latex in their homes because it’s a more environmentally responsible choice. It’s simply healthier for your home and the air you breathe. Oil based paints have higher VOCs (volatile organic compounds) which can cause cancer. They also have a stronger smell. Latex paints are durable and the paint technology is constantly improving. Thanks for the question and for watching!

Hi, I'm really hoping you can help me because I don't know what I'm doing wrong, I've always painted doors the way you showed, and always, every time, end up with stippling. While it's not terrible, it's just not smooth like yours. I'm in the process of painting all my doors, I'm using SW Emerald Trim and Door Urethane paint in Caviar Black, sanding them smooth with 220, cleaning them well, using foam rollers, but after every coat, I get stippling, what is going on? What am I doing wrong?? I'm sooo frustrated! Please help!

@DaruDhillon 2 года назад

Hi Robert, I hear you, that's a frustrating situation. Keep in mind, when rolling it's important to have a light touch, two light coats are better than a thick coat. You can also try another roller and test it on a scrap board to see if that makes a difference. If you find the paint is just not levelling out as you would like, you can use a product like Floetrol (I've attached a link below). You can add it to your paint to get rid of brush strokes or roller marks. It's what painters use for a smoother finish. It's also used on trim and baseboards. Good luck Robert. I hope it works out for you. Floetrol: amzn.to/3rXJAwv (Amazon Affiliate link)

@leafyutube 3 года назад

Is this for metal doors?

@DaruDhillon 3 года назад

Good question! Same technique can be applied to metal doors. Acrylic latex is more resilient to weathering and expansion especially when used in exterior applications. For exterior, I personally use Emerald line from SW. Good luck with your project!

You can actually mini roll the entire door. No brush needed. Sanding prior to painting is correct, however, you don’t need to sand between coats.

Priming, prep work and sanding are the most important steps in getting your paint to bond/stick to your door. Even when I re-paint or re-coat a door, trim or walls I always sand in between coats so that you get a good bond. Unfortunately, you may have to sand down your door, prime and repaint.

@DaruDhillon 3 года назад

Hi Ivee, you can insert two long screws on both ends of your door. Place the end of your doors so that the screws are resting on your sawhorses. The door will be floating on the four screws. After painting one side, flip your door over to paint the other side. Because your door is not touching a surface, you don’t have to wait for one side to dry before painting the other. If you don’t have sawhorses you can use 2x4 off cuts or scrap lumber. Hope that helps. Thanks for the question!

Enamel paints are prone to yellowing, especially white if they are not exposed to daylight. It’s a chemical process.
