Spray Like a Pro: Garage Door Finish That Wows the Neighborhood

What happens here

Once the first coat is applied and inspected, lift the garage door approximately halfway. This exposes the bottom edge of the door and the bottom weather stripping, allowing for proper drying and access for masking removal. Carefully remove the masking paper from the bottom edge of the garage door. For windows, it is recommended to leave the masking tape (specifically Frog Tape Blue and Green, not less effective production tape) on until the paint is fully dry to prevent smudging or damaging the fresh paint during removal. Place your spray gun into a bucket of water to keep the tip from clogging while the paint dries.

I used a Frog Tape production tape on the ground. I got two
