    Nice tutorial video. The order of painting the door with explanation was helpful for beginners. I’ve been a professional painter for 22 years and though my technique is slightly different the strong basic foundation for painting a door is spot on. Great job!

      About the paint, is it water based or oil based, I'd imagine if it was oil based eg gloss you wouldn't use kitchen towel to wipe excess paint off stile edges? And water based is easier to work with.

    You are a pro. Here’s why: you have patience. I haven’t read any other comments but I would bet that many people have criticized your method that it’s time consuming.
    But to paint well, it takes time, and even more time to do a video explaining it!
    I love you Brits how you explain things and your tools. They always seem to look well used!
    Nice job!

    @davidjeffreys9063 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Good video. Part of my job is doing the painting in rental properties and i always find it interesting to see other people's way of doing things. The way you do it is the way my dad advised me to do it. One thing i didn't hear you mention is the other reason why you wipe the paint off any section you are not painting at the time is because if that paint that has run over gets any chance to dry a bit, even for 5 minutes, when you paint that section it will show up brighter because it has received 2 layers of paint instead of one, then it will be patchy. The thing i would have done though is where you go over on to a different section ie painting the top horizontal piece, where it goes over onto the vertical side section i would have wiped it off in line with the joint as the same as i mentioned before, if you overlap , the bits that have had 2 coats will be brighter than the rest

    This is exactly the way I paint doors if I'm only using a brush. Otherwise, I brush only brush the grooves on the #1's and roll all the parts by your number pattern with a foam roller and tip it out with a brush.

    Hi, Aubrey,
    I've just finished painting my front door and architrave using your methods - including the numbered post-it notes. Mine were colour coordinated, too. It was my first attempt and I wish I could post a pic so you can see the progression. I'm really proud of it and I've had so many positive comments from neighbours and friends!
    I visited B&Q today to buy a sealant for the glass panel above the door, and showed a staff member a picture I'd taken on my phone, pointing out the area I wanted to seal. I also thanked her for her advice on the correct paint. She did a double take and asked if the phot was of MY front door. She thought it was an example from a magazine. I was very flattered.
    Thank you so much for such a comprehensive tutorial. I''ve subscribed to your channel and will be sure to check your methods as I continue my decorating.
    👍😀

    Hi, I’ve got some interior doors Like these to paint, that are looking a bit tired. After light sanding, do you need to undercoat them before painting if they’ve been painted previously?

    • @AubreysAbsoluteDecorating
      @AubreysAbsoluteDecorating  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi, if you are going to finish them with gloss paint you will need to undercoat them first. If you are going to use satinwood or eggshell finish then no undercoat is required just a rub down to provide adhesion. Hope all goes well with the decorating 😊

    😂most of us are on a hop up for the top rail. Great straightforward intro to panel doors.
    2 tecniques I was taught were to strike in the eye level and handle rails before the top one. Starting in the middle with the paint over strokes from laying off the muntings and painting out both sides evenly.
    A sponge plug in the handle hole stops your paintbrush picking up dirt, and it soaks up any excess around the edge.

    Use a mini sponge roller after doing mouldings for a spray like finish, I've never understood why have brush marks, also no sequence 1 to 4 needed as you just roll the door down from top to bottom, it's a correct method with brush but an old fashioned way & more time consuming, from a painter with 38yrs exp, no criticism 👍, i started at 17 doing doors with a 4 inch brush oil gloss no mini rollers back in 84 believe it or not, & it was a wrist breaker with also the varnished handles causing blisters, so I've done many like this & sequence is correct

    Painting door ok,profesional painting hard....In short steps profesional painting would be like this:
    Removing door from wall,taking out every metal parts,sanding and reparing if theres any needs for that,than painting with base cote (with compresor,not with brush),than sending again,than first cote of paint,sanding again,than second cote.,than clearing wholes ang puting back metal parts....That would be in short ,and results are perfect door....

    Thank you! I'm so happy you showed what order to paint the door panels! I've been DIY painting for several decades and this very detailed video was a perfect review.

    Well explained. This is extremely useful for those who worry about painting panel doors. There's other options but you're showing basics and explaining why you're doing a certain way 👌. No TH-cam when I was learning so sometimes mistakes were made 😁. Good video.

    New to painting doors due to the painters I know are totally booked up
    Never realised how much preparation goes into painting a door
    Anyway, I kept checking your video each time, to make sure I was doing it properly with the 1,2,3,4 system
    I'm so happy now and (exhausted)
    Now to the next one. Only 11 more to paint 😱

    brush the contours first and roll the flat part. Or brush flat sections as well, then pick up the loose paint on the flat part with a foam roller with minimal paint on it

    What about wiping away any paint that may have crept around onto the other side ( outside ) when you painted the first lock / edge strip ?
    Also wipe the the hinge edge in case any paint crept around when painting the face / stiles.
