Spray Like a Pro: Garage Door Finish That Wows the Neighborhood
What happens here
The weather stripping on the sides of the garage door should be painted, as paint acts as a UV protector, preventing oxidation and cracking over time. This extends the life of the weather strip. However, the weather stripping on the bottom of the garage door should *not* be painted and must be masked off. If the garage door was raised and paint was applied to the side weather strips, ensure the paint is 100% dry before lowering the door. Lowering a door with wet paint can cause the paint to 'bridge' between the weather strip and the door panels, potentially tearing the weather strip or even damaging the garage door opener when the door is next opened.
