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.
