Paint a flat door with a brush pad or roller with a 1 4 inch nap or foam sleeve.
Best paint for bedroom doors.
If you are going to paint a plain flat door use a foam roller to roll on the paint and use an angled brush to paint the sides.
To remove any lines lay off the finish by brushing from bottom to top with a lightly loaded brush or lightly coated small roller if desired.
After selecting your paint base you need to determine whether to buy indoor or outdoor paint or an indoor outdoor combo and the sheen you want for your door.
Inside doors can be painted with interior paint.
The right paint should protect against dirt and human oils as well as the force from opening and closing which can cause dry paint to crack.
Tips for plain doors.
Rolling a flush flat door.
Leave them unpainted so the door can expand and contract with changes in humidity.
Don t paint the top or bottom of a door the narrow parts that aren t visible when the door is closed.
If not either use a mini painting pad that enables you to paint the bottom edge or remove the door from its hinges apply a sealer to the bottom edge and rehang the door to paint the rest of it.
If you re painting an exterior outside door use exterior paint.
Apply the paint with a 4 inch closed end foam roller.
Outdoor is an easy decision.
Remove the door knobs and all other hardware from your interior door to simplify the paint application.
Next paint the door s surface.
Choose paint recommended for interior doors such as types with a durable gloss or semi gloss sheen that makes it easy to clean.
