Excellent video mate, just what I was after, do you usually only do one coat? Be nice to see one on what method you use to clean up your brushes. Keep up the good work skipper.
With pre-primed doors I normally apply one coat of oil based undercoat then one coat a Semi Gloss Enamel. I will do a video on cleaning brushes when I get a chance too.

Hi mate. Great video.
Quick question on paintng doors like that with enamel paint, how long do you wait until you paint the other side of the door? Do you ever have any issues leaning the first side against the wall with freshly dried paint? Cheers.
When using oil based paint you need to wait over night before the paint is dry enough to turn doors around. When leaning them against the wall its best to use some cardboard or timber blocks just to keep them off the wall just in case they do stick.

Do I need to sand my first coat of full gloss enamel before the 2nd coat on a door. Also should I roll and lay off the first coat as you said or would I get away with roller only both coats. Cheers. Great videos.
Yes you should lightly sand in between coats and don't leave it more then about 4 days before applying second coat for adhesion reasons if using oil based paint. Yes you can roll both coats if you want.

Hello, I would like to know if to repaint a door that has been painted with this type of paint i need to sand the door before.
Thanks
You should always sand before you paint just to make sure the paint sticks.

Hey do you like using 18 inch rollers just wondering my dad's old school so he hates em but I like em
I prefer 14 inch rollers, just a little lighter then the 18, a bit easier to use, some times 18 inch rollers are too big to get down the side of a door or window frames.
That's what I prefer but I have a good mate that always uses 18 inch roller.

Very nice!! U don't like the sponge roller ? There cheaper too? Or the mohair give better holding and finish u think ?
Mohair/micro fibre are the best for oil based paint. Very very short pile. That don't cost that much. Worth paying for the finish!
I think the foam rollers give a slightly better finish then the Microfibre or Mohair.
Mohair are good but they still leave some fibres on the door and the finish isn't as good as microfibre. Foam rollers do leave the best finish but it can take a little longer to remove any little air bubbles on the surface.

+howtopaintinfo my friend I thumb up all your vids!!!!! 👍
+Dave Mallon thanks for your opinion too pal!!!
Thanks for your support, just with all comment responses I'm going to add (Don't forget to, like, subscribe and share this video) so other people reading the comments might do one or more of those things. Just trying to get more people to support my channel.
Nice job, problem with me though is I just hate getting oil base paint on my big rollers, any tips on a quick clean up.
They don't really cost that much really! Worth the price when you get a smooth finish. Just throw them away and adjust your quite to cover the cost! Best way I think anyway!
I'm not sure what size roll you call big, the one I'm using here is an 11 inch microfibre. These roller sleeves cost me about $7 each, if i calculate the time it takes to wash one out and include wasting about $5 in turps then I'm better off just throwing it away.

+howtopaintinfo he may mean 9" rollers or above. In uk we get 4,7,9,12,14 and 18" sleeves. Most popular are the 4" for wood work etc and then usually 9" and 12" for emulsion.
+Dave Mallon Nice debate guys, on site we usually use mini rollers the 4 inch type for quick flush door work then lay off with a brush for a decent finish. But I'm definitely coming round to trying using a larger foam roller with quality lay off technique. Cheers again.
I have always used 11 inch rollers for doors, you get the paint on quicker so you have more time to lay off.
How do you clean oil based paint out of a roller? When I clean water based paints, I use a ton of water. Do you need buckets of turps for oil paints?
That's why you buy throw away rollers, it can cost $20 just in turps to wash a roller out plus your time. Do the math's, maybe time to buy cheap throw away rollers.

I normally use foam rollers for oil based paint then if you want to use it again for a second coat the next day wrap it in plastic so it doesn't dry out then when your done chuck it
What do you think of using a two rollers, one laid off and another smooth it off, or foam one?
If you really wanted to then there is no reason why you can't except that it would be a little more difficult switching between rollers.

Best roller for mirror type finish is still the 6" white foam rollers hands down
Back in the days doing like this would get booted out the door😜🤷
@@MuscleAKAOzzy If you want to achieve the mirror finish use a spray gun alone with good mixed paint.
@@vbroder15 true but this video is on enamel and roller
Fact is the foam roller is way superior finish than a Microfibre problem is these days painters see them in paintshops and wonder what they are used for 🤣
Can I use an acrylic based primer even if I'm finishing in oil enamel gloss?
Yes you can, oil based paints will go over water based paint as long as they are dry but its hard to put water based paint over oil based paints.

What brush/roller is best for painting an oil based paint on wood kitchen cabinets? I’m going to use an oil based paint for my cabinets and I’m looking for the smoothest finish. Thanks in advance!
A good synthetic brush will be fine and either a foam or microfibre roller. If you are going to use microfibre make sure you get the 3 or 4 mm nap. As far as i know foam rollers only have a few different nap sizes, once again go for the thinnest .

Does adding mineral spirits to oil base paint make it spread easier as well as drying more flat/level?
You can add a little to help it flow better but do not put a lot in of it can dry patchy.

@@howtopaintinfo I primed one side of a mdf door ( it might be melamine i always confuse the two) with a sherwin williams oil based interior primer (with no additives) and it dried very patchy and took a lot of time sanding to level it out. I primed the other side using the same primer but with Penetrol Flood added to it to make the primer more fluid. I was told by a guy that mineral spirits does make the paint more fluid but that it weakens the bonding agents in the primer and that is why he said to use Penetrol instead of straight mineral spirits. It definately helped make the paint more fluid and it did dry more flat overall but I still had these patches here and there that dried and they have these pitted lines in them that resemble wood grain (although its not a wood door its smooth mdf) so I still had to do some sanding. Is there any way to prevent this? Is it the brush I'm using or the primer I'm using or is it the mdf?
I noticed that best results are when I use primer in different base than finish coats. Try shellac based primer and oil based finish a bit thinned. Regards 🙃
Hi mate to you thin paint out?
Depends on paint , weather conditions etc, but yes I do thin oil based paints just a little.

@@howtopaintinfo that’s an art in itself knowing when an how much go go juice is needed. People don’t get it . Think your actually thinning out the opacity. When we know different.

Did it later turn yellow I hear white oil paints tyrns yellow with time
Yes in time white paint will look a little bit yellowish, that's why it's a good idea to use a light colour rather than straight white. You also need to remember all colours will fade in time.

If you don't want your white oil based paint not to turn yellow add a drop of black tint in it to stop it from yellowing
I find what works better is paint the doors laying flat & roll them sideways bit long ways with 6" wide with 1/4" nap or the paint will have dry spots.
Painting doors laying flat is one of the easiest ways to paint doors as its almost impossible to get runs but it's not practical for a tradesman to do. You will also need a dust free environment or your doors may come out a bit rough with dust settling on them.

Got to be the big roller, my boss like that we use the small roller but it's to small for big flat doors.
Yes you need to use 11 inch rollers or when using smaller ones the paint can start to dry before you have a chance to lay it off.
