Tokay Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 I've seen some crap jobs around down and I've seen some nice and well painted sliding doors. Anyone have experience painting these? Anything in particular needed, a special primer or base coat for the paint to stick better? Brand names you recommend? My fear is the paint will quickly flake off due to the door opening and closing every day. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wimpy Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 (edited) I sprayed mine with automobile lacquer and then a clear coat on top. No primer, just a good wipe down with lacquer thinner. This was on a brand new door. It has been about 4 years now with no peeling or flaking. Edited November 13, 2009 by wimpy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
