Review: Front Door Beauty - We have a pair of front doors that had been exposed to the elements for over 30 years. The doors are solid wood with oak veneer and solid oak molding. Each door is 3’x 8’ and weighs about 225 pounds. The exterior veneer started separating from the core in several spots. The inside of the doors are custom painted to match the interior of our home, and they are in excellent condition. We considered replacing the doors but the cost was prohibitive, and we could never match the custom paint job on the inside. So we decided to paint the exterior of the doors. Due to the complexity of the project, we decided to remove the doors from their hinges, move them into my shop, and remove as much of the veneer as possible, while preserving the interior finish. Some of the veneer came off with a simple putty knife. We had to moisten the remaining veneer with a damp towel for a couple of hours and then steam it with a hot iron so we could remove it with the putty knife. Approximately 90% of the veneer was removed, and that which remained was sanded down to blend smoothly with the rest of the door. Good preparation is the key to a successful paint job, so we began sanding with 80 grit sandpaper, then moved to 120 grit, 180 grit, and finished with a fine 220 grit. We used a power sander with a vacuum hose connected to a shop vac and wore face protection during the process. All of the solid oak molding was hand sanded with the same grits of sandpaper, and every attempt was made to preserve the detail in the molding. The colors of front door paint offered by Modern Masters are beautiful and stunning. After great deliberation, we decided on “Sophisticated,” the middle of the three red-tone paints offered. We wanted our front doors to define our home, to give our home some personality, and bring it to life. “Sophisticated” was the perfect answer. Some may not care for red front doors, and that’s fine. The important thing is that we know this special color hit a home run for us, and we could not be happier. It is important to remember that the light and shade your front doors receive throughout the day will change the way your paint looks. The shade will darken the appearance of the paint and direct sunlight will make it look its brightest. Since our doors receive both, we see different tones throughout the day. It is almost like our doors are alive expressing different moods as the day progresses. The attached photographs show how the appearance of our paint changes in different lighting. Before painting, we removed all dust and particles from the wood surface and taped the doors to protect the good inside finish. Also, we removed the solid brass hardware from the doors, stripped its old lacquer finish, and refinished it before replacing it on the newly painted doors. We had some water damage to the bottom of the doors and used Bondo to repair them before painting. We also applied new weather stripping to the bottoms of the doors. We followed Modern Masters instructions for painting. Due to the veneer removal, there were areas on the doors which were much lighter than the molding. To ensure the different shades would not spoil our paint job, we applied three coats of Bulls Eye 1-2-3 Gray Primer by Zinsser. And this was followed by four coats of Modern Masters “Sophisticated.” We brush-painted the molding and used a four-inch foam roller on the flat surfaces of the doors. This is a semi-gloss paint, and the finished surface appears a little like a laminate which should really stand up to the elements. The doors look beautiful finished and should be good for another 30 years. We learned so much from the comments on desertcart, we decided to provide a little more detail in our review in hopes it will be helpful to those tackling a little more complex front door paint job.
Review: Value - I have already told friends about this great paint. I applied one coat with a brush to front door and applied second coat with small roller. I also did two coats with a brush to two sets of shutters. It went on like melted butter. No odor that I tell. Clean up was so simple, warm water and soap. Definitely worth the money. I even have some leftover. I will be buying this brand again without hesitation.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the prep work?**
A: I just cleaned up the previous paint applications. Cleaned the door. I has 3 coats on it now but after a winter of wear it needs another which is fine. It has survived winter much better than red acrylic enamel. My door faces due east so it gets all the sun you can imagine.

**Q: How much paint do I need for the exterior of my front door and 6 shutters?**
A: I painted 4 door and still have 1/2 a quart left. I had bought 2 quarts thinking I would need that much. I did 3 coats on each door....just because I have the paint, not because it didn't cover good.

**Q: Does anyone know what behr red is the closest to the sophisticated red here?**
A: You can use paint match to get close. Behr is at Home Depot, so I would either take it to there, or you can use their paint match app. The only problem is going to be is getting the exact same color match. Hope that is helpful

**Q: Do I need to use a primer before using this on a front door?**
A: I didn't.....my door was faded.. I just washed it with soap and water sanded where needed and painted,. I just love the color and brightness on my front door.....get lots of compliments .changed the look of my house. I did do 2 coats and then touched up.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Overall very pleased - definitely a process
*by B***. on October 12, 2022*

After reading all the great reviews, we purchased this paint to paint our newly purchased and installed white pre-primed metal door. This paint dries fast! When they say fast, they aren’t kidding. Dries faster than you can smooth it out at times. It was easy to work with but because it dried so fast, it left marks where I would try to blend. The first coat made me nervous as you could still see patches of white through it. The second coat had much better coverage, the third coat covered all the white thoroughly, however due to it drying so fast, you could see roller and brush marks. I ready through over reviews and noticed people said adding Floetrol helped so I purchased some, added the correct ratio and painted a fourth coat. That did it and it looks fantastic! I’m so so pleased! One coat too many for the money but honestly I’m pleased with how it all turned out! So even, good coverage, and a rich black color. Add Floetrol if you intend on using the product, especially for the black paint!
