Painting interior doors – With these tips, you will succeed easily!
Do you also have those beautiful, solid pine doors at home, whose color you are already a bit tired of? Have your white interior doors yellowed and would you like to bring back a fresh look?
Beautifully leveling Frenchic paint is the perfect choice.
Painting interior doors is one of the most effective and affordable ways to renew the look of your home. With Frenchic Paint paints, you can achieve a high-quality and durable result easily, quickly, and ecologically.
Many of our customers paint doors in place, which makes the project even faster. The almost drip-free Frenchic paint is pleasant to paint with and the result is beautiful and smooth.
Choose a shade and test first
Read the instructions and order a small 250ml can to your home - test the paint and painting tools before a bigger job. By testing, you will get familiar with the paint and the tools you have chosen, get an idea of coverage, consumption, and the final result. At the same time, you can check the accuracy of the shade you chose. While testing, consider if you also want to paint the frames, which will increase paint consumption slightly.
Tip! Doors can also be painted in different colors on the inside and outside of the room! So you can match, for example, the bedroom door's shade to your wallpaper on the inside of the room and leave the outside in the same shade as the other doors.
