Proper Application of Acrogold PU Enamel Paint to Wooden Doors & Windows

• Check the door shutters for free movements / bend/termite attack etc.
• Check the door frames for line/ level/plumb/quality etc.
• Do not fix the door fitting unless the first coat of oil paint is applied to the door shutters.
• Apply a wood primer to door frames and shutters.
• The top of the door shutters should also be painted during every coat of oil paint.
• After primer application, fill up any holes/depressions with primer putty, as mentioned earlier.
• Apply this putty on the total surface of the door shutter evenly with a metal sheet, to fill up all the dents. Depressions etc.
• Always ensure the proper surface preparation as advised is done before starting the first coat of Acrogold PU enamel.
• Mix the stainer if needed, before application.
• Apply the first coat of oil paint with a varnish brush.
• Allow drying for a minimum of 24 hours.
• Check the quantity of stainer added in the first coat. The same quantity should be continued in the second coat.
• Use a small brush, in case of any narrow or under side of the door shutter/frame.
• Ensure that the sides of the cover moulding are painted with a small brush. (Painter usually neglects this).
• After completing the first coat, apply putty again on the portion where cracks/ dents/depressions are observed.
