just one coat of paint? Neat. Myself,, my neighbors have white doors, I live in a small "condo" community but it's really just two buildings of four town houses each, with each front door to the outside across from each other's front door. All the neighbors have white doors, and what better way to upset that dynamic than with the black door. I like the way yours looks. Bravo.
@@galsingrace3490 I wasn't joking about the one coat, just surprised.impressed. I actually took your advice, and did one coat on half my fence today. Tomorrow, the rest, and then, if I have time, the door..
Great video, Gals in Grace. A painting tip when painting doors is that you can cover the door knob with aluminum foil instead of removing the door knob. This will save a lot of time. Take care.
Ok one of those ladies seems to hate everything the other one does. Lol they don't like each other. "Work smarter not harder" "Well you need to spend some money and still work" LMFAO
Getting ready to paint our front door. I'm generally not very handy, and this is the first thing I've ever painted in my life, so this video was awesome. Thanks for breaking it down and making me believe I can actually do a decent job on this door. :)
Yay! We're so glad you have the confidence to get your door painted. It will look amazing, we're sure of it. We would love it if you shared the completed project. Send us a link!
Hiya gals. I'm loving that door. Lately I'm totally digging black, slate gray. Recently I painted our entry door, I chose Tiffany Blue with oil rubbed bronzed trim. It's delicious. Have a faboo day gals.
That sounds incredible! Trish would definitely go for that! Actually, we both would. Thanks for your great ideas. We would love to see some of your creations.
Great job! What a transformation! I always spend more money for the higher quality products, especially when it comes to things like painting because you do get what you pay for!
Wrap tape around your roller to remove all that fuzz. You don’t need to buy expensive stuff. Been painting 22 yrs. Or go out side find apart if your brick house and run the roller over the brick repeatedly
by painting the door in place, how did you keep the parts of the door from sticking to the frame? did you leave the door open for a few days while the paint cured?
Katrina thank you so much for sharing! The drying process is about two hours and we definitely used another coat although if you have a really good paint with primer you could Get away with just one coat.
Yes, it is harder to clean than a gloss for sure, but I just dust it with a dusting brush before washing with soap, water, and a cloth. It's worth it to me because I prefer the matte look. Thanks for watching!
We recently painted our front door black and it looks amazing so much so that others in the neighborhood have copied us. I have a question.. how do you clean it? I’ve notice fingerprints and I used a damn cloth to wipe it down and it made it look even worse. I was thinking maybe a wood wax and conditioner?
That sounds like a great idea. We spray our porch (including the door) down regularly with the garden hose to clean off the dust. Let us know how the wood wax and conditioner work!
I’m planning to painting my door by myself though I have never done it before. This video was fun to watch.. the end result of the fully painted door was super cool. Good job 👍🏽
Whenever I take something apart, I take pictures along the way. That way, if I can't figure out how to reassemble something, I can refer back to the pictures. It's very helpful!
But I thought you mentioned eggshell like. I'm about to do mine with a color in-between black and charcoal. Other videos I've watched they recommend some sheen and even a semigloss. To repel water and dust. How's yours holding up against that?
@@jennifer2185 gotcha. I missed that. It's hard to find "exterior" rated paint in eggshell. However, I think I'll go with interior rated and then apply a sealant. I like the color she used
@@galsingrace3490 It's not your "delivery". It is your lack of painting skills and knowledge that is in question here. You are out of your realm. Please don't attempt a roofing video. Both of you are, however, as cute as a button!
@@galsingrace3490 Girls, It is not your "delivery" that I take exception to. You are bubbly and cute and all those good things.

Good job laddies. I like how you corrected your camera assistant on nearly everything she said. Lol. It made it humorous!
Thanks. Exactly what I need to save the money to renew my front door
My husband painted ours today using your technique and color. Turned out great!
So glad to hear! We bet it looks beautiful.

I love this color, Tricorn Black. I used it in my bathroom on the wainscot. It’s lovely! Looks great on your door.
Woo hoo thank you so much for sharing your thoughts! We appreciate your feedback.

Very nice.

Love the color + great effort! You can also start at the top for an even better finish. This avoids any drips on your finished door. Good job!
Great tip! Thank you!
That looks great. Nice job.
Thank you!
Very well done video. Bright lighting, in focus. I will use your tips for my front door.
Wow..nice paint job!!

You did such an awesome job with this. I love the color you chose for your door. It just looks so classy. Love you girls!!!
Thank you! It was a scary color choice, but turned out really nice. We love you too, girl.
I’ll be painting my door black here very soon! Beautifully done!! New subscriber here!
I plan on being so ting my front door and window frames this black color. Do you need to still use a polyurethane sealant?
Wonderful commentary and an exquisite door. Thank you very much for sharing this.
Well thank you we appreciate your feedback!
This color is black matte or black glass shiny?
It’s a matte paint.
@@galsingrace3490 water base or oil based paint ?
@@AhmadAwan-rn9vv there is a link for the paint used in the description box.
Great jobs
The decoration hanging in you door is so beautiful. Please share that link.
Gladly! We made the wreath. You can find the link for that video in the description box under "How to video for wreath." Thanks for watching!

Niiiice
by painting the door in place, how did you keep the parts of the door from sticking to the frame? did you leave the door open for a few days while the paint cured?
I just let it dry for the day. There was no sticking. Thanks for the question!
I am going to buy Snap Dry by Sherwin Wms. Satin, reviews say Semi gloss looks like Gloss.
4:52 Excellent finish! Almost looks a tad charcoalish in this shot
You can put duck tape around your cheap paint roller and it will pull off all the lint away :)
Patricia Cornforth thank you so much for sharing! What a great idea!!!
I washed my door and the paint started to come off,it was a big mess.I would recommend wiping the dust off with a dry rag.
What grit sander did you use for sanding?
Did you say this was a flat paint? Im prepping to tackle this soon
It's labeled as an eg-shel/Semimate
Absolutely entertaining, watching two young ladies paint a door while Absolutely drunk on wine !!! Lol !!! Just kidding !!!
Thanks for sharing loves
Thank you for watching!
Hi! What kind of sander grit did you use? Thanks!
I'm not sure, but I typically start with a coarser grit and work my way down to a finer grit sandpaper for a smooth finish. Thanks for watching!
I have 3 coats of Benjamin Moore and its terrible!!
Off to buy SW Tricorn now.
Hope I can just paint over it
UGH
Oh no! We hope it works out.
Did you leave the inside of the door white or did you paint that black as well?
We left the inside white.
Love the door! I'm going to do mine this weekend. How long did it take for the paint to dry? Did you only have to use one coat?
Katrina thank you so much for sharing! The drying process is about two hours and we definitely used another coat although if you have a really good paint with primer you could Get away with just one coat.
Live it. ❤️
Diana's Life Thank you Diana!!!
What grit of sand paper was used please?
About to paint my front door black soon!! Never thought about doing a matte finish though!! It looks amazing!! What kind of matte finish did you use?
Thank you for watching! The paint we used is listed in the description.
Is the matte hard to wipe on to keep clean? Versus using a semi gloss or eggshell
Yes, it is harder to clean than a gloss for sure, but I just dust it with a dusting brush before washing with soap, water, and a cloth. It's worth it to me because I prefer the matte look. Thanks for watching!

I'm so afraid if I take my deadbolt off I won't get it back together.

Matte black? love it 😍 i need it
Does it not need a primer before painting? Sorry, I’m new here and want to paint mine this week!
We chose to use a high quality paint that had good coverage instead of a primer and a paint. It is still looking great after three years!
@@galsingrace3490 thanks for your reply! You did a fantastic job. So excited to tackle this!
Great job! What grit sandpaper did you use?
I don't remember, but I typically start with a coarse grit and gradually shift to a finer grit.
Beautiful! Did you use coarse, medium or fine grit sandpaper?
Sam August fine! You just need a light sand!
Can you use this color on shutters as well or is it too shiny?
Definitely not too shiny. However, the matte finish makes the dust difficult to clean off. I’m not sure it would be practical.
Do you have a video how make the wreath?
Yes! We do! I will link it in the description box.
Beautiful DIY Spring Wreath for Under $20!
Wow Osm
It looks fabulous!! Did you used oil or water based paint?
Water :)
Did you paint the inside too?
No, just the outside. Thanks for watching!
Great tutorial.thanks
Just wear some glasses while sanding, would be safer for you.
Thanks again ❤️
Great tip! Thanks for looking out!
Girl that storm door suppose to lock so it wouldn't keep hitting you .
Hah! Yes, you're right, but the wind got hold of our door and busted that part of it. I need to fix it so that I can use that feature.
Good job....but your friend....glad your leading....lol
Is that a metal door?
No, it is wood.
Do I need to sand it if it’s brand new and primed?
Katelyn Goins a light sand is always good!!!😊💪🏻👌👈
How much time did u let it dry?
A couple of hours
It’s not too dark... it’s black!
How many coats of paint? :)
dannyt720 2 is perfect!
What paint brand and color is this?
Elizabeth Oest Sherwin williams But I am not sure on the color I think we chose a really nice black
Was that a matte finish? :)
Sakaloo7 yes!!!
