How to paint a door frame or door jamb - (correct technique)

[@howtopaintinfo]

Its a beach front hotel and it was a day with extreme weather warnings, so it was a little windy that day. Also I had removed all the rubber seals from the door frames so I could paint them.

I have 10 door jambs that finally need to be repainted after 19 years. I am considering doing them myself and I was wondering if I should use Floetrol as a paint lever to reduce or eliminate brush marks? And I do not want the doors to get stuck due to too much paint on them? Or would it be better to spray them? Thank you

[@Mike-qo4kp]

I used floetrol recently and can say first the product is water and a cheap latex paint mixed. It gave me runs and was ok working with white latex paint but I added some to tinted base for trim and it changed the color and dulled the sheen. I would advise not using it. Use a stiff chinex brush and learn good technique for the results you are after.

[@kimsandoval6698]

Thank you for the tips and advice! I will definitely forgo the floetrol. I first start on the door coming in from the garage to see how the technique works.

Very valuable information. I've been trying to figure out the best order to paint all the surfaces in and it's amazing how important the specific order is. Thanks !

[@KG84C]

Ahh, timber frames. Bit of a rarity over here in Perth, all metal frames here. Got an 80's house reno, each frame I scrape back to metal, paint comes off very easy, go over frame with solvent, mask off with frog tape/newspaper, spray etch primer whole frame, spray gloss white around hinge bracket that's spot welded to frame (Can't be removed), then brush on Dulux oil based gloss white. This is with the door, hinges and pins removed mind, the hinges I remove any paint, clean with metho, spray with etch primer, the spray gloss white. Hinge pin, give pin an emery paper rub so there's no wear marks, same paint treatment for head of the pin (OCD I know) and very light smear vaseline on the pins. For any Perth or anyone else Oz wide, the bump rubbers that usually perish, you can get them for 40 cents each at big green shed with a red hammer logo. Door itself, I'm a lazy sod, nearby paint n panel spray shop does a door for about $170 in 2 pack, done in 2 days, no waiting for paint to cure and super smooth finish. Enough of my waffle, liked the video.

[@howtopaintinfo]

Metal door frames are always a pain, just wondering why you don't spray finish the frame if you already have everything in place? Also do you paint your frames first as it can be quiet tricky trying to cut in to the walls.

[@KG84C]

@@howtopaintinfo Gday mate, mainly I found the gloss of Dulux high gloss enamel was superior with a brush, and doing it with a spray can was hard to get consistent finish all over. Strangely enough brushing on oil based paint is pretty soothing when it's on your own dime, and don't mind the smell at all (Missus is at odds with that but). Not necessarily plugging Dulux, though it is a good product. Even with drop sheets/masked off with newspaper, the over spray from the etch primer was a bit of a pain, but found it gave a much better adhesion to the metal frame. I suppose you've seen plenty of blobby paint runs on hinges though. I did them last, I am crap at cutting in so use tape, that "frog" tape seems to work ok, walls, whole other story, had to scrape back to hard plaster (All solid brick in Perth) as plaster not sealed in 80's, sealer/binder applied (Mmm, the smell...), skim coated all the dings pock marks, two undercoats, wait 4 days, run orbital over with 120 paper for baby bum smooth, then topcoat x 2. Get much hardplaster paint flaking off issues over east?

[@howtopaintinfo]

There is nothing wrong with a good brush finish. I haven't come across hard plaster flaking for a long time and yes sealer binder is the way to go.

[@markschrader7869]

Would a paint sprayer give you a better finish for both door jambs & doors? Bathroom & Kitchen Cabinets? I'll be using Sherwin Williams Pro Classic. Thank you for the video.

[@howtopaintinfo]

A spray finish can look better if done correctly but it can be just as quick to brush door jambs if you take in to account all the time it takes to mask up. The thing with using a sprayer is the overspray, so I will use a sprayer on a new home but with an existing home with carpet etc I would just use a brush and roller. Depending on your brush skill you may find using a sprayer is better to use even with all the masking time. With doors I would spray about half and brush and roll the other half, as I said it depends on where I'm working and if spraying is viable or not.

[@markschrader7869]

Thank you, I decided to brush & use a roller with Flotrol added to Latex to reduce brush & roller marks. & I used Penetrol with the oil based Kilz primer. It really does make a difference. A little goes a long way.

[@emilyc9380]

Mark Schrader pro classic is super thick and self leveling probably not the best thru a sprayer

Does it make sense to buy a more expensive brush with better quality even if I don't get to do household painting that often?

[@howtopaintinfo]

Jancen Well that is a good question, good quality brushes are better but if you don't think you will use them that often then maybe you will be wasting your money. You can store them for next time you need to paint or maybe buy just one good brush for all your trim work and a cheaper brush for walls and ceilings. I know others would say you would be wasting your money buying cheap brushes, so it's up to you but remember good quality brushes are better to use.

[@ejroughley]

Better quality brushes tend to clean up better and therefore reduce the overall number you need to buy too. In my experience, one $10 brush lasts longer than 5 x $2 brushes and you also get a better finish. If they're cleaned properly and stored properly it doesn't matter how often you use them. Shape the bristles while wet. Once dry, store in an air tight container. I've used the same, good quality brush for years that way.

Is it the norm to paint all door frames in a house the same color. I have chosen white for kitchen and bathroom, but in the bed rooms have already painted using pascal color. This will result with a hall way having different door frame colors.

[@howtopaintinfo]

Normally if a room is different colour to the hallway then the door frame would be painted in two different colours, one side painted to suit room the other side painted to suit hallway. That's why you will find a lot of people that like different colours in every room choose white as a neutral colour for all the trim. So if you wanted it to look all matching then you would need to paint the hallway side of the door frame white.

Do you gloss in Australia or do you use a special type of paint?

Hi...I am at the point that I need to paint the doors and frames of my rooms. Would you please tell me where I start? Door or frame first?

[@howtopaintinfo]

Hi Sarah, paint your doors last because you don't want to splash paint on them while painting the door frames. Some times doors will need to planed due to the paint build up, if they are touching now then you will need to plane the edge slightly to allow for the extra coats of paint.

The way your glossing the door frame is the right way old school by doing that way your glossing everything inside instead of walking in and out.. a lot of painters now usually do start behind the door and gloss the whole frame inside and outside and continue with the top and side as all one piece so you don’t miss a section

The correct way is to learn how to spray. There is no comparison in the finished result or the time savings from spraying.

[@howtopaintinfo]

+nicksflixworld Sure the spraying time is far less then brushing but it can take hours to mask every thing up. To brush a door frame should take less then 30 minutes with very little clean up time. When spraying you first need to mask every thing then when finished you need to remove all the masking tape so if you start adding up the time it takes to do all of that there is not much difference in the time it takes to paint. Also spraying won't fill any fine gaps in the timber but they can be filled with paint when brushing.

+Von Milash they obviously aren't in the repaints field.

[@nicksflixworld]

Silly Von, ever hear of an HVLP sprayer and masking? It takes a few minutes vs' brush and rolling plus yells better results. And yes sometimes I do brush and roll but rarely.

[@vonmilash823]

nicksflixworld You roll a door frame? Lol. And yes I know quite well hvlp. Asinine to spray in a furnished home.

[@truthawaits4u458]

nicksflixworld what happens when they call you back to touch up scuffed doors and frames? You gonna touch it up with a brush so it can flash on a sprayed door? Or you gonna retake and mask everything off again to spray touch some doors and frames?

way easier doing all frames first before walls so its easier to cut down the wall by the door frame thats my painters tip lol

[@godbluffvdgg]

+reed jr Bennett LOL...You're kidding right? It's ceilings, walls, windows, doors, base...If you paint your frames first you'll just be painting them again because if you're any kind of painter you'll get drips from the walls and ceilings...

[@emilyc9380]

godbluffvdgg that's what tape is for. I would never paint in the order you said.

[@alanmcgarvey6505]

reed jr Bennett 😂😂😂keep that tip to yourself haha

[@truthawaits4u458]

godbluffvdgg wrong. Ceilings,then trim(crown,frames and doors),then walls. I do baseboards last. Same concept of painting frames before walls. Easier to paint a nice straight line on the baseboards to a freshly painted wall than the other way.Actually a lot faster too. And if your any kind of painter you won't be splattering paint every damn where when rolling walls or ceilings. Lol. In the 20 years I've been painting,using this process I was taught at a union based paint company I've never had any issues. A process that no doubt goes back a long time. Lol

[@stueyravey]

reed jr Bennett .. I agree 🖒
