The sprinkler near the garage door keeps the bottom panel(s) wetter
than otherwise in South Florida's semi-topical climate. It is time to
replace the door panels once again. They are no longer made of the
world's best lumber - style and rail affairs with a plyeood panel
insert.

Last time I tried two coats of exterior primer and three oats of
exterior latex flat and the job didn't last two years in places and I
had to repair sections of the rails.

SO, I thought to check-in here and see if there were any trucks of the
trade one or more of you might share to help me best protect the $130
replacement panels the need replacing now.


I think the simplest solution would be to correct the sprinkler problem. Is
repairing the door every 2 years less trouble than correcting the sprinkler
application in that spot?
