Excellent video with great tips. The best part is that the video addresses and removes any apprehensions that may be causing many of us to put off a project like this. Thanks for the confidence😊

Thanks so much Kory, I appreciate the comment. That is always my goal to inspiring and give the confidence to others. Prices now days are so much plus it’s a great feeling to DIY. 👍

Awesome job, the door looks great! I doubt most people we be able to appreciate the amount of work you actually put into this door. Love the attention to detail you gave. Most people would have skipped sanding and using primer.

@inspiringbuilds Год назад

Thanks so much. You’re right, the prep work was the most labor intensive and took the longest. I believe that’s the most critical step for long term results. 👍

@OverOut Год назад

wow! Dan, they came out beautiful! 👍🏼awesome job. it's amazing how different the whole look of the house can be with just a change in the door. also - watching the door get painted in fast motion was so satisfying to watch! 😜

@inspiringbuilds Год назад

Thank you, I had a good helper and we appreciate it. It’s one of those projects that gets put off sometimes for too long. We are looking forward to this combo of primer and paint lasting a long time. 👍

Beautiful door! Beautiful finish! Ty ! I appreciate the clear instructions and link to tools used. Tysm! The door I am painting tomm has a brown coat of paint on it. Do I need to sand? Tyia

@inspiringbuilds 9 месяцев назад

Thank you Tyia, I appreciate it! If you have any peeling or rough spots I would certainly sand as your finished product will only be as good as your prep work. If all looks great and you just want to change the color you will be fine with a couple good coats of Stix primer first. Good luck and let me know how it turns out. 👍

@dannypagan9306 4 месяца назад

Will a quart of primer cover front and back of door? 1 coat? Great video! Keep up the good work…

@inspiringbuilds 4 месяца назад

Hi Danny, I appreciate you watching and the comment. Welcome to the channel. Yes in my instance it would have been tight but I do feel that I would have covered both sides with 1 qt. Note that coverage depends on the texture and porosity of the substrate, application method, and waste. This product is great for almost anything and I would have picked up 2 qts vs the risk of running out as I could use it on other projects. Here is the link and let me know how your project goes: amzn.to/43ZRUMr

@lar4305 7 месяцев назад

How do you stop the paint from sticking to the door seal once it is shut against it? looks fantastic .

@inspiringbuilds 7 месяцев назад

Thanks for watching and I appreciated the comment. If you apply the plastic sheeting and then follow the paint times in the video it will allow the paint to dry and you can close the door without anything sticking. Let me know if you have any other questions. 👍

@inspiringbuilds So you would not recommend zinsser primer as a comparable alternative? Thank you so much for your prompt response. I have saved that video segment to refer to when I start the project.

@inspiringbuilds День назад

@@brendaelliott9767 It will work, but I prefer Stix. Stix is a premium quality with excellent adhesion to practically any surface.

@inspiringbuilds Afterward, I read several customer reviews, and they each mentioned the exceptional exhaustive quality. It will purchase the recommended brand.

@catherinepena256 11 месяцев назад

I noticed that you didn’t apply a top coat like poly urethane. With the elements harsh on the door, is this a step you’d recommend? If so, what kind? I’m assuming water based. Thank you

@inspiringbuilds 11 месяцев назад

Thanks for watching! I personally would only use 2 coats of the Stix Primer I have linked in the description and 2 coats of Aura exterior paint for excellent long term results.

@inspiringbuilds 3 месяца назад

Thank you, I appreciate you watching and looking forward to having you as part of the Inspiring Builds family for DIY projects and home repairs. I would use a wood filler and sand it down once cured then pickup with the steps in the video after all of your sanding is complete.

Zero issues, just follow the timing instructions as outlined. Thanks for watching!

@malikdaniawan756 26 дней назад

This black paint you use is Black matte or Black Shine?

@inspiringbuilds 24 дня назад

Thanks for watching. It’s a Black Satin (little easier to wipe clean than a matte, but doesn’t have as much shine as a gloss). I would highly recommend to use the primer I have linked in the description first. 👍

@KeiOkumura Месяц назад

Did you need to keep the door open to dry at the end?

@inspiringbuilds Месяц назад

Yes, put the pastic up, start earlier in the day, allow 4 hours of dry time between coats, and I applied two coats of paint so the door could be closed and home secured at night. Let me know if you have any other questions and thanks for watching.

@msjoy2005 Год назад

Would you add a top coat?

How much did you charge? Three days to paint one door sounds very expensive.

@inspiringbuilds 9 месяцев назад

Hi Frank, thank you for watching and welcome to the channel. I did not charge anything for this job, however you can if you would like. This video was to show the proper way to do it yourself and yield a professional end result without having to remove the door.

Did you get roller stipple?

@inspiringbuilds 8 дней назад

@@Trifleify Thanks for watching. I did not, but recommend to use the products linked in the description and following the techniques in the video. To avoid roller stipple it’s important to use the correct roller cover, use a high quality paint and roller, apply the correct roller technique, and allow for the correct dry time before applying additional coats. Good luck on your project, let me know if you have any other questions.
