All Raynor residential steel garage doors are already painted with a baked-on finish.
No additional painting is required.
If you want to apply another color, however, the following steps are required.
NOTE: Only paint the exterior of the door while it is in the closed position.
- Use the following solution, with a soft bristle brush, to remove mildew and other surface contaminants:
- 1 cup household Spic n Span® detergent
- 5 gallons warm water
- Rinse thoroughly with water.
- Use a powder cleanser like Comet®, diluted with water, with a soft bristle brush, to prepare the surface for better paint adhesion. Do not use sandpaper, deglossers, or liquid sandpaper to prepare the door surface.
- Rinse thoroughly with water and allow to dry.
- Use a high quality acrylic latex exterior paint. Apply according to manufacturer's instructions. Do not use oil-based paint or any "rust-inhibitive" paint. Do not paint in direct sunlight or when surface is warm to the touch. Lap marks will result. Brush application is recommended.
- Avoid getting paint on any gasket seals between door sections. Not all Raynor doors have these gasket seals.
IMPORTANT: Since Raynor has no control over recoating, we do not warrant this product against peeling of the original factory-applied baked-on finish or subsequent coats of paint where recoating has occurred.
If you have any painting questions, please call 800-4-RAYNOR (800-472-9667) or email thegarage@raynor.com
