Default Paint for steel door


On Sat, 20 Feb 2021 10:39:27 -0800 (PST), Thomas posted for all of us to
digest...


New doors coming tomorrow from lowes.
32x80 primed steel full light Masonite.
Looking to paint it satin black. Looking at Rustolium but it has crap reveiws.
Any paint suggestions? Maybe spray can? Best brand with good reviews?
This is back door, stained new front fiberglass door a few months ago
and it came out fantastic. The new door will be on horses in basement so running paint will not be a big issue. It has non removable white grid. Storm door is Tradewinds no paint needed.
Thanks yall.


Not to be a smart ass but why not ask Lowes or the door manufacturer what they
recommend? That way if it doesn't turn out to your expectations you have
someone to yell at. I haven't painted a metal door in 40 years so my advice
would be bad. My off the cuff would be an enamel. Remember a door has 6 sides
to it - top, bottom, sides, front, back. Good luck with your project and please
get back to us with you results.
