Please help! Last week we had a new front door fitted by someone we found
through checkatrade. The door came glazed but untreated. He primed and then
gloss painted for us. It was dark when he left and it looked ok. However, on
looking at it in dalylight, I can now see that whilst he used tape around the
edges, nonetheless both the primer and gloss red paint have got in behind the
glass
NO, its just got behind the wooden beading - its on the outside surface
of the glass.
Remove the wooden beading, clean the paint from the glass with a razor
blade, paint the inside of the beading you have taken off, wait for the
paint to dry and replace beading. Repeat on other side of the door
By the way - ****e paint job - the recommended cowboy could have
brushed off all sawdust before painting over it
Don't use a razor blade, sometimes it scratches it badly. A bit of ali cut from a drinks can does the job without damaging glass.
