Painting Aluminum Windows & Doors. Spraying Metal Windows. HOW TO PAINT METAL

What happens here

Once the DTM bonding primer is dry, load the paint sprayer with the chosen finish color, Tricorn Black. Apply a smooth, even coat of paint to all primed window frame surfaces. The video highlights that DTM products often provide excellent coverage in just one coat. As with priming, maintain a low pressure setting to ensure a controlled application and minimize overspray. Check for any missed spots or uneven areas before the paint begins to dry.
