Follow our step-by-step guide on how to give your UPVC/ PVC door an instant makeover.

  • 16 February 2022

Painting your front door is the most effective way to lift both your own mood and the look of your house. In terms of a project, it’s a lot less time consuming and expensive than re-painting your entire home. Preparation is key; make sure you thoroughly prepare the surface first. Always allow sufficient drying time between coats (check the can for details).

Step 1

Remove any door furniture and use masking tape to cover any elements that must stay put.

Step 2

Lightly sand the surface.

Step 3

Thoroughly wipe the surface with a lint free rag soaked in methylated spirits (not white Spirits) and allow to dry.

Step 4

Apply one coat of Dulux Trade Super Grip primer all over and allow to dry.

Step 5

Finish by applying one or two coats of your preferred top-coat in your chosen colour. Leave to dry for four hours before you apply the second coat.
