No hardware removal? Ok Darlin, still watching! Looks good from the road.
Great video, but had to mute the music. Need to refresh our door! Thank you.
❤
Beautiful
Music is too much.
It’s the warm smile you give the camera after cleaning the door, such a beautiful smile 😊
This tutorial only works if you want your door to be darker than it was before
Never Shake varnish Stir It
your sound it too low
I tried to watch this video but the background music was awful. And then the lawn mower, something started up. Oh I love the video, but it was just too obnoxious to finish.
Also remove hardware if possible, lay door down on saw horses may be helpful.
Always lightly sand, steel wool on curved surfaces. Your objective is slighty dull the previous polyurethane. Do not sand into the stain coat. General Finishes gel stain is very good, Old Masters so so, not sure about Miniwax gel stain. It might have been better to stain worn areas than repeat whole door in 24 hours. Exterior polyurethane with uv protectants 3 coats either satin or semi gloss a must.
Itis Mod Podge, not Modge Podge or Hodge Podge.
Typo!!
I tried but I just can’t get through this between the constant introduction, then the background tv or noise. Nope
Very informative, going to try my door using your video for guidance. My suggestion for future videos is to not use that background music. It was distracting and you were having to talk over it to be heard.
It might be helpful to not play music when someone is talking.
👎🏻 for the music
Hard to hear.
How did you get the clean slate residue ohff?
Thanks for your help 🎉❤
You are so welcome.
The pots turned out beautifully, but the music near the end of the video was so loud that I didn't understand a word you said.
Very good video, I may tackle this. If there is someway you could take the volume down of the music or better yet turn it off while you are talking it would be so helpful. I found myself getting frustrated watching the video due to the music. :(. I will be looking at more of your videos! :)
Do I need to use paint remover to remove latex paint from door, or can I just sand the fiberglass door down
MOD MOD MOD MOD Podge
Beautiful job👍👍👍🌹🌹🌹♥️ I love the napkin bright flowers, they are all beautiful ♥️♥️🥰
What kind of sealer do you use on top of the modge podge gloss coat?
Thank you for sharing! It looks like a wonderful job!! How much stain did you need for that door?
You didn’t sand it first? My door is rough with light and dark patches where the poly is worn off
In that case, I would definitely give the door a light sanding. Be sure to wipe it clean of dust before you stain.
You did such a great job explaining the necessary steps to re-stain the door. We have an 8’ fiberglass door and it is time for a re-stain. You made it look so easy.
Looks amazing! My contractor did an awful job on our door, so I'm going to have to redo it. :/ But I would recommend taking thr music off your videos. It really distracting and hard to hear you.
Thank you for the helpful tips on refinishing a door. The music drove me nuts but I learned what I needed to know!
like the video however I have my volume at 100 % and still can not make it out !! Thought u may want to be aware !
👍
Is your door FIBERGLASS oe WOOD?
It's solid wood, Annette.
Great video! Is this a fiberglass door?
Can’t hear you very good
We can't hear you! And what happens if you ever replace the hardware?
Hi, this turned out beautiful. Question: if I make a flower pot with paper and modpodge, is it suitable for outside? Thank you for the video love from the Netherlands 🎨🖌️✏️✂️💕
I wouldn't use them outside unless under a covered area. I used them all inside.
Beautiful thank you for sharing from Scotland 🏴
Great job! Painter of 25 years. Gelstain is awesome for this application.. Pro tip. Scuff up the previous varnish pretty good so it adheres. Dont shake varnish always stir it has to do with bubbles in the varnish and have fun! Cant go wrong!
They are just beautiful…thank you Carol..I am going to try and make them xxx
My door is a stainable fiberglass and, like yours, it has faded very badly at the bottom half. When I stained it, 22 years ago, I also applied a coat of polyurethane on it. I have been wanting to restain it, but I wonder if I need to strip the polyurethane that is still at the top half before I do that. What should I do? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
I have never used a polyurethane. Rather than strip the poly, I would give it a light sanding. Then wipe down to remove all dust before applying 2 coats of the Gel Stain and 2 coats of the Matte Sealer.
@@carollander2515 Thanks for your response. Here's what I did to the door today. I sprayed some Awesome (the brand) cleaner and sprayed the entire door with it. You should've seen how the old stain came off when I wiped it! It almost stripped it all off except for the top part of the door. That stuff is powerful! Then I sanded the parts where the polyurethane hung on and tomorrow I'll try to stain it. I noticed in your video that you put the stain on and didn't wipe it off? Just let it dry on the door?
@@ccg6244 That's awesome ~ is that the name of the brand? Correct I didn't wipe off the stain, but that's not to say you couldn't. Depends on how deep you want the stain color. Report back!
That is a fantastic liquor cabinet FYI
I noticed that too. lol
Is this exterior stain what company , where to buy ?
Thanks for asking. The Gel Stain is from A Makers’ Studio. It’s an awesome product. Don’t forget to order the Matte Sealer to project the stain for outdoor use. Here is a link to the product. amakersstudio.com/collections/gel-stain#a_aid=813553&a_cid=11111111
Music is distracting when you are talking
No need to prep the door other than clean it?
That’s correct. Now, if your door is not in good condition, a light sanding first would smooth out any rough places.
What a fantastic and clear presentation.
Thank you. I’m glad you liked it.

It would be nice if you could give us the brand name of the materials you used for this job.
She did give the names of them in the video
I did give all the information in the video. But here is the link to the post with all the details. Thank you for watching.

You should be able to use the Gel Stain on any surface.
Thank you! I just wanted to make sure I bought correctly. Your door is beautiful! I bought the same color stain!
Also, would you recommend a brush or rag to stain with?
