How do I repaint my Larson storm door?

LaDonna
by LaDonna
It is on the front door under a porch roof, so it is protected from weather, but it faces the west sun and the paint finish has crazed. Otherwise it is in great condition. I would like to make it look good for another 20 years. Help please.

      the door is metal and it has glass at the top with plastic muntins. metal and plastic are white. The door is crazed but is still smooth.

    You need to remove the crazed part by sanding. I'd take the door down and put it on saw horses. Sand, clean, spray paint. Perhaps a coat of clear spray after you put the color on.


    As Janet asked, we need to know if it is metal or plastic because Larson makes a lot of different doors. Metal and you are good to go. Plastic may be cracked through the panel and there is no fixing.

    What do you have on it now? You need outdoor paint, to protect the door.

    Rustoleum spray paint is an easy, inexpensive long-lasting fix. A can has both primer and paint mixed tog. Be sure to clean surface first and tape off areas to remain unpainted.
