Do It Youself Tip - Painting Doors

After you have spent the time to prep your door, carefully sanding and priming so you will achieve the perfect finish.  You start to paint and realize there are horrible brush marks everywhere. All your prep work is for nothing if your paint brush leaves lines everywhere.

When you are painting with a brush, don't overwork the paint. Brush it on and let the paint flow to fill the brush marks. By pressing too hard or not using enough paint on your brush, you will not get rid of those brush marks.

If you do get brush marks, let it dry, sand with 220 grit sand paper to rough up the surface, and repaint allowing the paint to fill in the lines, not you.
