    Very helpful video. I also could use some pointers on sanding French doors. Mine have multiple old coats of paint .

      Were you able to find anything? I used citristrip today on it and it came off so easily. Then going to hand sand the detail and scrub off with scotch Brite pad or steel wool.

    Nice job, personally i like using tape especially when people are around the job site. I usually just run long strips of tape down and across the edges of the window and just cut out the excess with a razor knife. Quick and lets people know there's wet paint should you walk away.

    After it dries what's the best method to scrape excess paint off the glass?

    I installed new wood French doors. Do I have to prime first before painting? I’m painting doors with same paint you recommended.

      Yes, prime first with KILZ Restoration Primer... Then lightly sand with 220 grit sand paper, You can get it at Home Depot...

    No I don't brush it out or lay it off with a brush... If you apply paint with a micro fiber 6inch roller cover it doesn't leave roller stipples in the finish...The finish looks sprayed...

    What nap microfiber? 1/4” or 3/8”

      I don't use this type of roller cover anymore... I use the green stripped "Micro Fiber" roller cover with a 3/8 nap... the micro fiber does not leave a stipple on the surface... home depot...

      @@glennscottthepainter5176 thank you. I tried foam, thinking that would give me the smoothest finish, yet there’s so much stipple. It reminds me of of a popcorn ceiling. The paint I’m using is a paint and primer mix. Is that what you use? Or should I use strictly paint. Is that even a thing anymore? Do I need to have it thinned? It’s going on factory primed French doors. I appreciate any advice you can give me. Thank you.

    Yea I find it much faster to paint both windows in each row completely. This took a lot longer than needed and way to much much up and down. Its easier and quicker to paint both window panels on the right and left at the same time. I have been painting for 27 years. Door looks great and ya did your way which is totally fine for you. But not the best way I have seen these doors done.
