I've been wanting to do this for a while now, but it was a big change so I was hesitant. Well, today I took the plunge and started painted my inside doors...
What do you think???
Here are a few tips when painting doors. Take the door down and lay it on two saw horses. Do not try to paint it when it is hanging. Remove all of the hardware from the door before you paint. Use a paint brush to pint in the indented spaces and be sure not to leave extra paint in the corners. Use a roller to do the rest of the surfaces. 3 coats of paint should cover it, be sure to let each coat dry before you put on the next coat. To speed up the process you can use a fan. When you flip the door, use two people and set the door down gently so you don't scratch the paint that you just did. Once it's painted and dry, put the hardware back on, hang it back up and then touch up any spots that you need to using a paintbrush.
