How To Prep & Paint A Metal Roll Up Garage Door. How to spray a garage door.

What happens here

Before spraying, ensure you have all the necessary equipment ready. This includes an airless sprayer (the video uses a Titan 440i, which can be rented from a local paint store for around $25 a day), a 5-gallon bucket to hold the paint and prevent spills, all the masking tools (3M Hand Masker, paper, tape), and a specific spray tip (a 515 tip is recommended and often provided with rented sprayers). Additionally, a 20-inch spray extension wand is highly recommended to reduce back strain from bending over during spraying.

Goal: Gather and set up all necessary spraying equipment

Tools and materials

  • 20-inch Spray Extension Wand — Extending the reach of the sprayer to prevent bending and improve comfort
  • 5-gallon Bucket — Holding the paint and ensuring the sprayer intake is stable, preventing spills
  • 515 Spray Tip — Controlling the spray pattern and flow rate of paint
  • Airless Sprayer Titan 440i — Applying paint evenly to the garage door
  • Masking Tools — To ensure all previously masked areas are in place
  • Paint — To color the garage door
