I'm so glad I came across your video. when I heard "Aloha!" I said, oh this the one! I just had my door replaced yesterday. I'm on the No. Shore of Kauai, and my last door rusted. Mahalo for the great info. I'm going to Lihue first thing next week, and get some of that car wax. Thanks again!
This really works. Our door is still looking great and it's been almost seven years since I made this video! Thanks for watching! Aloha!
Mind officially blown! Wish i saw this video as soon as i had the security door instslled a few years back. Now gotta deal with repainting!
Best wishes on your project and thanks for watching!
Hey there! Good job! I live in Kailua, Oahu, and 2 blocks from Kalama Beach. I missed the rustoleum reformer and just used the stop rust rustoleum. So I will monitor and see how it goes on the 2 screen doors, and the 18 cube refridgerator in the garage. The next time I will use the reformer 1st, then the stop rust. I just took the doors off by unscrewing the hinge side, removed the locks for better coverage, and hung them from a pole horizontally, using tie wraps around the pole and the hinge bar. Paint dries quickly so I made sure I gave it curing time between 3 coats. We'll see how it goes. Aloooohaa.
San Diego - 4 blocks to Ocean 5 Doors!. Expensive to replace. Thanks so much for the informations.
You may have to re-apply more than I do, but it really works well. thanks for watching Tess.
GREAT tip -
Especially enjoyed the Mozart in the background. Well done!
Thank you Leo. This really works well! Especially when you apply with Mozart playing in the background. Ha! Thanks for watching.
Great suggestions! When I heard you end with "Aloha", you really got my attention. We live in Kohala on the Big Island and get the salt air blowing with the trades up to our 1400 ft elevation. The screen doors really take a beating as do our windows with supposed stainless hardware. Will give this a try. Mahalo!
It works really well Kathy. You may need to reapply more frequently, but it's better than having to buy another screen door! Thanks for watching.
Thanks Steve. I'm in Hilo, actually Mountain View, so going to try this out.
Thanks for watching Caleb. If your doors are directly exposed to the environment, you may need to clean and wax more frequently, but it does work! Let us know how it works for you, up in Mountain View.
Wow, thanks SO much for these tips. We're on the North Shore of Kauai and like Kaneohe, we get lots of rain and some ocean spray especially during the windy winter months. We've already been through several of these doors, just had new ones installed and decided to go to Utube to look for help re how to protect the doors and our pocketbooks. Can't thank you enough. Aloha and mahalo.
This an awesome tip! I use to live in Hawaii when I was stationed there. The salt air will cause rust quickly!
Yes it will! This also works on stoves, refrigerators... any parts that rust. Thanks for watching Tony! My door is still looking good since I made the video 6 years ago. I've reapplied a few times a year and cleaned, but it's working.😀
This is wonderful, most helpful video. Thanks!
Aloha Emily. It really works well! Thank you for watching. Did you try it?
Just installed my door I will do this thank you
This is the BEST time to treat your door, when it's brand new! Thank you for watching.
This video is a God-sent. Thank you thank you thank you!
Thank you for watching! I hope it helps you out. I works very well for me in Hawaii.
I had a metal screen door installed about4 months ago and it's already rusting from the elements. I'll try the wax in the next few days. It wouldn't be such a concern if it was the side garage screen, but it's the front door. I guess I have a job to do, :) Thanks for the video
Aloha Simone, it works. I made this video in 2015 and my door still looks new. I apply regularly, about every 3-5 months. Knock off any large rust flakes (if that bad) with a wire brush. Then spray the rust converter on the rusty spots and it should turn black. Then spray Rustoleum paint (whatever your local hardware store carries) and let it dry. Then spray the wax on both sides and be sure to get into all the ridges, holes, etc. Do a couple of applications to start with. Frequency of re-application depends on how much weather your door is exposed to. If you go to long and see any hint of rust, be sure to use the rust converter and paint right away and apply the wax. Best wishes and thanks for watching!
Great Video I Live in Hawaii in Kapolei about half mile from beach and my door is starting to rust will try your method. Thanks for sharing
Aloha and thank you for watching Joseph. You may need to re-apply the wax more often, but it works well!
Great ideas indeed! Thank You So Much for the Efforts & for Sharing! Stay Safe & World Peace! 🌍🌷🕊
Aloha and thank you for watching Toma!
I like your videos .thank you so much.
Thank you for watching and I hope they help!
Thanks for tips
Thank you for watching!
Good info.
Thanks
Aloha and thank you for watching and your input T Sabo. It really works!
Thank you for watching T Sabo!
I have almost the same door. We are in Oahu about 10 miles from the ocean
The wax treatment should work Mark. We're about a mile from the ocean. Our door still looks great. Thanks for watching.
@@StevenParente I've tried getting the old rust off. Nothing works so I'll get the paint you recommended and repaint it
I had to do that. I caught it before it got too bad. There were just a few bad spots. I knocked the flakes off with a wire brush and then sanded. I used a rust converter and then painted, then waxed. Everything his been good for going on seven years. I clean and spray the door about every 3-5 months.
I was shocked, when you said "Aloha!" LOL I'm from Kāneʻohe, and I haven't changed my screen door for 12 years and been meaning to get a new one, but since I saw this video, I think you'll saved me some $$$!!! Mahalo, Steve!
It works Whoa Nelly! If you have rust, convert with the rust converter, paint and when that cures... wax! Thanks for watching! Aloha! :)
I know I was like wait, did he just say Aloha?! I live in town and I need to fix my door since I am home anyway thanks!
Aloha hyunhee kim. It works! Thanks for watching.
Hello Neighbors in Kaneohe. We'll be trying this too. Out door is terrible
Thank you for watching and I hope they help in your own projects.
Any tips on how to cheaply repair or cover a hole on a metal security door?
How do you get the rust off though???
@@Chicoandtheman Go to 3:02 in the video. You can also use a wire brush to knock off any large chunks, then sand a little. Then spray on the rust converter. After that, I painted and it was like new. Then waxed. Thanks for watching!
I just bought some white security doors a couple years ago and the rust is starting to break through at the welds . I think it is due to a poor quality steel . At any rate I wanted to get in front of the cancer before it got really out of hand and so I came to YT actually looking for some one who had tried Plastidip as a remedy. No one has thought of making that video yet so I guess I am ahead of my time. I like what you came up with and this seems a great solution. However I already have more small chores to keep up with around this old house as it is like changing the furnace filters for example. If I am honest with myself I know that I am not going to keep up with the tri-annual application of the wax. I am hoping for a fix it and forget it solution.
Let us know how it turns out, or create a video. Make sure to convert the rust, unless you completely remove the paint in rusted areas. It could work. It would take a lot of the liquid plastic. But a new door is expensive. Thanks for watching!
I realize this is an eight year old video but if anybody out there knows how to get the paint removed that got stuck in all of the little holes of the metal screen, I would love to hear from you. Short of taking a small nail and sticking it through 500 million holes. I don’t know how else to clean this out. I’ve considered wiping paint remover on the whole door. I do not know if it will get the paint out of those cracks and crevices, however.
I spray light coats to avoid filling the little holes. But sometimes it still happens, so I poke a nail through the holes to clear them.
Thank you for sharing.....I'm ready to make my door beautiful again....👊🏼Cold Chitwn 🙈
Thanks for watching Yo Charlie! And you CAN do it! Take a before and after shot.
This is such a great video. What's your view on painting w/a brush? My security door has too many points where the spray paint will touch the walls even with painter's tape.
Aloha GH. Thank you for watching and the positive feeback? Painting with a brush should be fine. You can find 1/2 pint cans of Rust-Oleum (or larger) enamel for a few bucks, which is oil based. You'll need paint thinner for cleaning. You'll actually get a heavier coat then spraying!
Thank you for sharing. On my way to Home Depot 😊
Thanks for watching Bernadette and best wishes with your screen door!
How do I fix the metal mesh in it after it's been kicked in by an ex? Lol, the whole bottom area of my security door metal mesh is busted inward, and idk how to replace the metal mesh,or least push it back in, it's way to strong to do just with my hands, I've tried needle nose players and still it's dang impossible to push back in, half tempted to slip on my steal toed boots and start kicking ad hard as I can from the inside to push it back into place then tie some wiring all along the bottom
Aloha. Sorry to hear that. It sounds like a replacement door is in order. You might find someone who works with metal (handy person with lots of metal tools) and cut out part of the metal mesh and weld, or screw new material in. Or you could take the door to a metal shop, but I would suspect (with shop rates at around $100-$150 per hour) the cost would be more than buying another security door and having it installed. Thanks for watching!
Our door is terrible with rust and I've tried every thing to clean it..
..nothing works
If it's not too far gone, try the rust converter after sanding and then spray the white Rustoleum and shoot the wax. If you need to buy a new door, wax asap.
Good morning Mr Steve my question how do u water 💧 spots off your door 🚪 and keep it looking brand new thank u
Aloha Ladi Day. After waxing the door, I wipe the door down every 2-3 weeks, (or when it needs it) with a rag and a mixture of soap and vinegar. Thanks for watching!
@@StevenParente thank u
So use the rust reformer 1st then paint then use the wax???
Mahalo for your kokua!
Mahalo for watching!
Thank you! Very helpful. Does the rust remover need the entire 24 hours to dry?
You should let the Rust reformer fully dry to make sure that all the solvents have evaporated and the rust has been converted. Also, you wouldn't want to spray paint or wax over unevaporated solvents, which can cause bubbling in the paint and an uneven wax coating. Thanks for watching Emily!
@@StevenParente Great. Thank you very much, Steven!
Wax on, wax off karate kid!
That's right! Thanks for watching,
Anyone know where rustoleum "rust reformer white in spray can" can be purchased? Thanks.
I would like to know too. Went to Home Depot, Lowe’s, and Ace Hardware - none of them carry it.
It's difficult to tell, but did you paint the door in place?
Yes, I retouched the door in place. I put newspapers on the floor under the door and taped off anything I didn't want the overspray to hit. Thanks for watching LindieLee!
I’ve got the same door, just has a question, how do I remove the metallic mesh from the door?
Aloha Ali, you can't remove the mesh, it's welded onto the frame. When I had to paint, I laid down newspaper and plastic around the area. When I wax, I lay down newspapers. Thanks for watching!
@@StevenParente Hi! How do you prevent overspray into your condo from when you spray from the outside of the door? Thank you! GREAT video! I'm in Southern California
Aloha Shannon, I lay down newspapers or plastic sheet, all around the door so it doesn't get on the floor. Thanks for watching!
When you take care of things they will last
Yes! Thanks for watching Christian! I like your last name. Where are you from?
Awsome
Thanks for watching!
Hi everyone! I was following along up until the last bulletpoint black screen where another product was introduced and totally got confused at the steps of each liquid and are they all needed? Could someone post a bullet point of steps with the item/product used pleeeease😆😊
The rust converter is used if your door has rust. Many people just apply the wax on a new door, but if they have rust, using the wire brush (as shown in the video) to remove flakes and rust, and the rust converter is used to neutralize the rust and stop it from spreading. Then paint and apply the wax after the paint has completely dried. I hope that helps and thanks for watching!
Ok thanks... what about that white ceramic spray?
@@SmartySmartsThat’s to cover over the rust converter, which looks black when the rust is neutralized. My door is white and that can of paint is the closest. Made my door look new when the retouching was finished and the wax was applied.
@@StevenParente thank you!😊
@@SmartySmarts 😊
What if there is a big paint chip ?
Aloha Gloria. Sand the area down to smooth it out and repaint, then wax. Thanks for watching!
Plz tell me cleaner liquid
And
U show me in video
Plz tell me the names...
Aloha Shaik. You can use any type of cleaner. You want to remove dirt, grease and anything else. I mix my own using water, dish soap and vinegar and put that into a spray bottle. A third of each will work, or whatever proportion works best for you. Thanks for watching!
Wow! I love You Tube
Thanks for watching Klay!
My door rust all the time it faces the sun 🌞😂 I’m over it ( paint)
Paint and then try the wax out. Thanks for watching Jacqui!
@@StevenParente thanks 😊👍🏾
Hey that's MY WAX trick‼️...LOL 💯🔥
💥💥💥 😛👍💪🙏
This technique works! I've been doing this for over 8 years. It works on stoves, refrigerators and other appliances as well. Thanks for watching Shepherd.
I'm sorry but the other 2 doors that you should had become victims of cat pee , I've had this on my door it's not because of the elements.
Aloha Joe, if that's true, then my door would also be a victim of cat pee, as mine is in the same hall and no more than 7' feet away from one of the doors I showed. If this is the case, then the wax also works in protecting against this. Thanks for watching!
Music too loud.
Thanks for watching!
