What happens here

After sanding, thoroughly clean the door surface to remove all dust and debris. Then, mask off any areas not intended for paint, such as hinges, door handles, and weatherstrips. Also, mask off the surrounding door frame and any adjacent surfaces to prevent overspray. The presenter highlights masking the entire other side of the door to avoid internal overspray.

Goal: Protect surrounding areas from paint and ensure a clean surface.

Tools and materials

  • Masking Film or Paper — Covering larger areas around the door
  • Masking Tape — Taping off areas not to be painted

What they say

Hide

Make sure it's all masked off, got the sides masked off, got the hole masked off on the other side so I don't get overspray inside. We're good to go.
