Painting a sash window can be a straightforward task if you follow the right steps and take your time to do it properly. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to paint a sash window:
Gather the necessary materials: You'll need the following items:
Paintbrushes (small and medium sizes)
Painter's tape
Drop cloths or plastic sheets
Sandpaper (medium and fine grit)
Primer
Paint (interior or exterior, depending on the location of the window)
Paint thinner or water (if required by the paint manufacturer)
Prepare the window area: Start by protecting the surrounding areas. Cover the floor and any nearby furniture with drop cloths or plastic sheets to prevent paint splatters or spills.
Remove any hardware: Take off any window hardware such as locks, handles, or hinges. This will make it easier to paint and prevent accidental paint application to these parts.
Clean the window: Use a mild detergent mixed with water to clean the window frame and sashes. Remove any dirt, dust, or grease. Rinse with clean water and allow it to dry completely.
Scrape and sand: Use a scraper to remove any loose or flaking paint from the window surfaces. Be careful not to damage the wood. Then, use medium-grit sandpaper to smooth the surface and create a good base for the new paint. Finish with fine-grit sandpaper to achieve a smooth finish.
Repair any damage: If you notice any cracks, holes, or gaps in the wood, fill them with a suitable wood filler. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for application and drying time.
Apply primer: Apply a coat of primer to the sash window, following the manufacturer's instructions. Primer helps the paint adhere better and provides a more durable finish. Allow the primer to dry completely.
Paint the window: Once the primer is dry, you can start painting. Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Use a small brush to paint the individual panes of the window, and a medium-sized brush for the larger surfaces. Start with the inner parts of the window and work your way out. Apply thin, even coats of paint, allowing each coat to dry before applying the next one. Follow the paint manufacturer's instructions for drying time between coats.
Remove painter's tape: Once the paint is dry, carefully remove the painter's tape before it fully sets. This will prevent any peeling or damage to the newly painted surface.
Reattach hardware: After the paint has dried completely, reattach the window hardware that you removed earlier.
Remember to work in a well-ventilated area and follow any safety instructions provided by the paint and primer manufacturers. Take your time and pay attention to detail for the best results.

It would be my recommendation and suggestion that you never paint window tracks. Anywhere where there's movement those extra Mils of paint is going to cause the window to get stuck. It's not just about painting the rope it's the actual track itself is getting thicker by painting it. Also once you slide the window up into that wet paint in the track is going to harden and seal sticking to the window. So it's kind of a two-step issue. Even if you move the window as it dries the extra Mils of paint is adding thickness which is going to tighten the window in place.
If a client wants the track painted it's better to just explain to them that it will cause the window to stick. And the most you can do is clean it to make it look nice.
And when you're explaining this to the client just let them know that if they want a different color the track is going to remain the existing color and not the new color. So that way they can plan ahead if they want to change the color.
That is the longest way in existence for a professional to explain "I don't want to do things for you"
With the right effort and cost involved you could sand the paint off and repaint it instead, that should always be presented as an option.
Really helpful and clear video. Thank you very much for this.
Thanks, you have explained it very well. I will now finish my windows!

Thank you mate.
Great techniques there, job well done. I hold the brush the same as you when doing the left side of windows. Awesome vid mate!
Thank you very much mate
Thankyou for the great advice. What is the going rate for painting a whole sash window inside and out as I will get a pro to do it as this seems a little complicated for me
Brilliant thank you!
You're very welcome!
I have to paint the frames for 12 Andersen casement windows. Some have dozens of small holes because prior owner stapled plastic screens right to the frames. Some have a recent poor-quality paint job as well. I saw your recommendation for a brush. Can I use any kind of electric sander (palm, orbital, oscillating tool etc.) to try to smooth out all those perforations? What kind of filler could I use? Do I need to prime over old paint? And what kind of paint would be best? Thank you.
The sash windows that have the disappearing frame and screen do you do the timber around the screen first?
Cheers
thank you for this. any suggestions for how to fill/level paint chips on the sash box? it's one of those jobs that few people will come out for so I'm trying to figure out how to diy.
Using a putty knife, scoop out some Ready Patch and smooth it over the surface of the crater left by the chipped paint. Work it in several directions to fill any nooks and crannies.
Also, make sure to overfill the area a little so that when you’re ready to sand, you can sand it down to a completely level surface.
Once the patch is completely dry, then sand it smooth using 120-180 grit sandpaper until everything is smooth and level.
Touch up the patch with a little bit of oil or acrylic primer, and then you’re ready to re-paint the surface.One coat of primer and one coat of paint later and I’d challenge you even know there was a repair done at all
And this time, the finished product will blend in perfectly with the surrounding trim
Hope this helps .
Great video. Looked effortless. What paint brush you using.
Hi thank you for watching pain brush is Unipro Smooth Coat Sash Cutter Brush 50mm

Hi, so generally is the Unipro Smooth Coat brush you’re general “go to “ brush? and if , when would you choose a different Brand and for what reason?
Many thanks.

how do you stop the windows getting stuck when the paint dries in the rails?
You cant ...
free them up once dry
Hey nice video, do I have to get rid of the old paint or just paint over it?
Depending how many coats of paint is dear more then 7 coats of paint get rid of the old paint .
When you paint the inside rails do the windows get stuck when it dries?
Nop
Great work..which brand brush are you using ? , and is it Oil or acrylic gloss?
Cheers bud.
Uni-Pro Smooth Coat Synthetic it Oil paint
You should of cleaned the glass first with razer used no more gaps to make straight lines, and applied dulux 1 step OIL BASE undercoaat sealer primer, then put dulux full gloss super enamel oil.
Hi Zeljko, thanks for watching...Cleaning the windows including scraping all the paint from the windows was the job of the cleaners that came after me to clean the windows... Same for the glazing part, performed by glazers using windows silicone and not No More Gaps and I highly advise you not to use No More Gaps between glass and timber! Undercoat was already applied, including all preparation, I just wanted to quickly demonstrate how to paint a top coat on sash window without showing the whole process which would have ended up to be a very very long video...But yeah thanks for the input.
The bottom sash is a top sash installed upside down.
Yes that's True you Are the only one who's spotted this. Eagle eye 😃
@@samcopaintinganddecorating is it because bottom sashes are
impossible to find at a salvage yard? In my area it’s impossible to find good ones. Some companies will make them for about $400
