BEST Way To Paint Doors. AIRLESS SPRAYING.

What happens here

Begin the preparation by masking the glass panels of the doors. The painter uses a 3M Advanced Masking Film dispenser along with FrogTape. He prefers masking the doors while they are upright to avoid bending over. FrogTape is chosen for its 'PaintBlock Technology' which swells to prevent paint bleed under the tape, ensuring clean lines on the glass. The process is carried out using a 'batch processing' method where all similar steps (like applying tape and film to all panels) are completed before moving to the next task.
