This is the best DIY tutorial I’ve seen on UA-cam. You start at absolute beginner level and your presentation is slow and easy to follow. Thank you.
Thank you so much for your positive feedback Mark. 😊
I am a fellow painter and i have to say that you are a very good teacher sir. and this is an excellent video. very well detailed.
Thank you very much Michael. I do appreciate your kind comment. I hope all is well with you on the P&D front. 😊
Ah many thanks. Wish I’d found this video yesterday I’ve got 13 doors to to paint and spent half a day on one! Off it’s hinges, dust sheets out...primer...wait to dry...flip it over...primer...wait to dry...top coat of satin...wait to dry...flip it over...you get the picture!😂
Definitely subscribing.
Starting from scratch again tomorrow! 😉👍
Goodness me Steve, 13 new doors to paint, that is a mission. Glad to hear the video is a big help for you. You are going to be a master door painter after all this. 😊 Thank you for subscribing 👍
Nice tutorial video. The order of painting the door with explanation was helpful for beginners. I’ve been a professional painter for 22 years and though my technique is slightly different the strong basic foundation for painting a door is spot on. Great job!
Great to hear!
Thank you sooo much for explaining things so well in all your videos .. I lost my husband and so at 73 I've started painting in the house again! All the hall doors etc. seemed very daunting but after watching your video, I'm inspired .. thanks again.
I am so glad you are finding my videos helpful. Hope all goes well with all your future decorating projects 😊
@@AubreysAbsoluteDecorating Thank you so much .. one door painted both sides .. quite a few to go but enjoying it thanks to you!
That is great news, glad to hear it is going well 👍
Excellent tutorial for someone that is painting a door for the first time. Just what I was looking for. 😍
Glad it was helpful! 😊
STILL the best , many thanks . wiggle the brush , noted
Very easy step to step guide. I was able to follow all the steps and I didn’t get any paint runs on any of the door panels.
This man is a brilliant painter. In the past my pairing was not up to standard but I can now say I have learn how to paint like a professional now just by watching the video on how to paint the door.
Thank you so much excellent demonstration. God bless you
Thank you Ruthlyn for your lovely feedback. I am so glad you found the video so helpful and enabled you achieve such positive results. I do hope all goes well with all your future decorating projects. 😊
Thanks for being such a great teacher. I’m painting panels, frames, doors and repos in my 120 m2 apartment in a bit and I think it’s going to get easier with your videos.
I am so glad you are finding the videos useful. Hope all goes well with the decorating of your apartment Charisma 😊
About the paint, is it water based or oil based, I'd imagine if it was oil based eg gloss you wouldn't use kitchen towel to wipe excess paint off stile edges? And water based is easier to work with.
THE best UA-cam video on how to paint a door.
Thank you, glad you found it helpful 😊
This man is a very good instructor, everything he is saying is true.
Thank you 😊
Being a tall painter decorator has its advantages! Thank you for a very informative video.
Glad it was helpful! 😊
This guy needs to make this an ASMR channel as well as watching him paint and listening to him is very relaxing
V useful, rspecially the oder of painting and the 'flicking' technique
You are a pro. Here’s why: you have patience. I haven’t read any other comments but I would bet that many people have criticized your method that it’s time consuming.
But to paint well, it takes time, and even more time to do a video explaining it!
I love you Brits how you explain things and your tools. They always seem to look well used!
Nice job!
Thanks Spencer, your comments are much appreciated. Yes, everything seems to be about speed nowadays but it does take time and patience to achieve the higher standards. Many of my tools are like old friends and I know I can rely on them. Thanks again, Aubrey.
This is what I was looking for. Lots of well explained details and taking the time to paint without rushing through it with a well traced plan. Painting real good is a marathon, not a sprint.
I found this system very efficient, Really informative video. Thanks.
Thank you! I'm so happy you showed what order to paint the door panels! I've been DIY painting for several decades and this very detailed video was a perfect review.
Glad it was helpful Morrissey 😊
Thank you for your tutorial. Your explanation is so simply presented . I can’t wait to paint another door!
Glad you found the video helpful and hope all goes well with your future door painting 😊
Sir Aubrey, Your skills, professionalism, pride, and patience are in short brilliant. I don't think there are many true masters of their craft like you left nowadays, unfortunately. My dad now sadly departed, was a CRACKING! pro painter/decorator too. You truly are, a joy to watch and listen to.
Wow, thank you Billy. Your kind words are much appreciated. It is good to know your dad also took pride in his work and was a dedicated professional 😊
My boss was impressed with the way I did my doors after watching your video which is amazing!
That is brilliant news, good stuff 😊
What a great load of video's here, very helpful tips, and nicely voiced over to, the wallpaper ones I'm gonna use.
😂most of us are on a hop up for the top rail. Great straightforward intro to panel doors.
2 tecniques I was taught were to strike in the eye level and handle rails before the top one. Starting in the middle with the paint over strokes from laying off the muntings and painting out both sides evenly.
A sponge plug in the handle hole stops your paintbrush picking up dirt, and it soaks up any excess around the edge.
Thank you so much! I'm doing a DIY renovation and had no clue how to do anything, but your videos have been beyond helpful!
That is brilliant news. Hope all goes well with your decorating 😊
What a calming and pleasing video. I feel better that it always takes me nearly 20mins to paint a panelled door!
Glad you enjoyed the video. I am sure that taking your time on the doors paid off with good results.
Aubrey's Absolute Decorating , well, people call me back so we’re doing it right!!
Super tuition! My DIY decorating 'technique' [!] was rusty, so I watched your expert demo and it really helped me improve the finish I achieved on our doors. Thank you so much for your patient and professional instruction!
That is great news Marcus. Hope all goes well with your future decorating projects 😊
Thank you ! This was very instructional. I had no idea the process and numbering to paint the sections. This was very helpful!
Hi Cheryl, glad it was helpful!
Very helpful, makes so much sense. That’s how I will be painting my next door! Thank you Aubrey x
Thanks Aubrey, great video, followed your advice on painting the first of 8 panel doors and got the best results i ever have, now i can complete the other seven with confidence!!
Fantastic!
So grateful to have found you! Thank you for all your tips and helpful answers to others. You’ve given me the confidence to tackle my doors 😊
That is great to know Pri. Hope all goes well with the doors project 😊
Really pleased I watched this video, it was very helpful and I'm now actually motivated to paint my 12 doors!
Goodness me, 12 doors, you are going to be busy Kaeren. I am glad you found the video helpful. Hope all goes well 😊
What an excellent video. Very helpful. What a great bloke too. Explains everything carefully like a great teacher and in a reassuring way. One of the best decorating videos I have seen. Thank you Aubrey.
Thank you Paul for your very kind comment. It is great to hear that you found the video helpful. Hope all goes well with your decorating projects 😊
I learned a lot. Thank you for sharing and very thoughtful of you to paint with a different colour so we can see what you’re doing. Great clip.
Thanks so much 😊
I am full of confidence now! Got doors exactly the same! Thanks for your amazing technique with tips..
That is great news, hope all goes well for you 😊
This video is great. Really really helpful. Painted my undercoat in a different order and ended up scuffing my wet paint when I got back to the beginning. Just done my top coat using your order and I’m really pleased with it. Thanks Aubrey. Legend
Good stuff, glad to hear it went well for you 😊
Awesome - so helpful, I am no longer intimidated by painting a panel door. Excellent video - thank you
That is great news, hope all goes well for you 😊
Very detailed video and great demo , using no 1, 2,3,4 ,as selection to work with. I am a completely 0 experience tone painter , thank you for adding confidence for me start painting!
That is great news, glad you found the video helpful. Hope all goes well with your decorating projects 😊
Great vid! I’ll be painting my doors later this week. Your tips are much appreciated!
Thank you, hope all goes well with the decorating 😊
So glad I just watched your video. Just about to paint new panelled interior doors and was just going to go crazy with a brush and pot of paint! Would've been a total disaster! Had no idea there was an order and special technique! Lol. Thank you so much!
Glad you discovered the video just in time. Hope all goes well for you Joanne 😊
Thank you so much for this video. After being let down by our decorator we resorted to painting our door ourselves. I had to learn very quickly that there is much more to painting a door than you realise, if you want it to look good. I really appreciate the great explanations and advice in this video!
I am really glad you found the video helpful. Hope all goes well with the decorating 😊
@@AubreysAbsoluteDecorating it is going well thanks to your help thank you 😊
Love how detailed all your tips are. So helpful! Thank you
Glad you are finding the videos helpful E`ala, hope all goes well with the decorating 😊
I made a little cardboard panel door with your numbers and tips. Very useful! Thank you!
Great idea Chris. Hope all goes well with your decorating projects 😊
You win the door painting UA-cam's. Very good technique.
Thank you Rich 😊
Thank you so much. I feel more confident now to paint my front door.
That is great news, good luck with the door 😃
I found this video extremely helpful. Thank you for taking the time to do this and post it. I am going to try to replicate your work in Kentucky/US. THANKS!
Brilliant, hope all goes well for you over in Kentucky 😃
Pound for pound the best decorating teacher online ! Bar none
Wow, thanks Tony, much appreciated 😊
Good video. Part of my job is doing the painting in rental properties and i always find it interesting to see other people's way of doing things. The way you do it is the way my dad advised me to do it. One thing i didn't hear you mention is the other reason why you wipe the paint off any section you are not painting at the time is because if that paint that has run over gets any chance to dry a bit, even for 5 minutes, when you paint that section it will show up brighter because it has received 2 layers of paint instead of one, then it will be patchy. The thing i would have done though is where you go over on to a different section ie painting the top horizontal piece, where it goes over onto the vertical side section i would have wiped it off in line with the joint as the same as i mentioned before, if you overlap , the bits that have had 2 coats will be brighter than the rest
Iam a qualified decorator and your a perfect teacher . Great video.
Wow, that's great, thank you 😊
Great advice for someone painting a door for the first time. Thank you
Glad it was helpful Kerri 😊
Incredibly helpful. Many thanks Aubrey - I now know why the Zinsser Cover Stain looks so bad, and how to correct it with the undercoat and the topcoats over the next couple of days! Your efforts are greatly appreciated!
Glad it was helpful, hope all goes well for you with the decorating Denise 😊
Well explained. This is extremely useful for those who worry about painting panel doors. There's other options but you're showing basics and explaining why you're doing a certain way 👌. No UA-cam when I was learning so sometimes mistakes were made 😁. Good video.
Thank you Chris for your positive feedback, much appreciated 😃
great step by step plus a lovely accent (to my ears - my ancestors were not upper crust) to boot.
Always enjoy a fellow man of the brush..
Proper technical approach is always appreciated..
Thanks Denis.
Thank you so much. We're doing a house up in Ireland and have ALOT of painting to do... Your demo is very easy to follow and I don't know how many times I've referred to a screenshot I took of the numbered panels to make sure I'm doing it right 😁
Wow, seems like you have a big project on your hands. Glad I could help. Hope all goes well for you 😊
Well done mate, reminds me of college back in the 70s 😄
Absolutely brilliant!
In addition you are so easy to follow. My husband is a contractor but does a lot of painting but we end up arguing doing it together bc he thinks I should know all this. Now I do!❤
That is great news, hope all goes well for you Leslie 😊
Thank you so much for sharing your technique. I have painted many paneled doors in my lifetime, but was looking to refine my brush technique. Since moving to in Georgia, I have noticed the heat & high humidity can really affect how the paint lays down, even if I add in paint conditioner (not to mention drying/cure times are very wonky!). I tried your method, and I got a fantastic result. Just switching up the order in which I painted the panels, rails and stiles really helped me brush faster, with more focus, and the paint laid down super smooth as a result. Thanks again!
Hi Kimberly, I admire your determination to achieve high standards with your painting technique. Glad to hear you have persisted and got the high quality of finish in your completed work. Many of the modern paints do dry very quickly so having a plan and good technique can make all the difference. Good luck with your future decorating projects.
Very useful video. Followed all the instructions and my door looks great. Many thanks.
Great to hear Jill 😊
Thank you for showing from start to finish, appreciate your insightsful video👍👏
Glad it was helpful 😊
Fantastic! Great stuff, Aubrey! I’d love to see your next video on painting the frame. I’m a new up and coming decorator.
Hi Donna, glad you found this video useful. Good luck with your new career I am sure you will find it very rewarding. I will do a video on painting the frame hopefully sometime soon. 😃
Hi Donna, I have just uploaded a video on painting a door frame, hope you like it.
Aubrey's Absolute Decorating many thanks for letting me know!
Thank you for your vids, I've learnt and enjoyed watching them.
Glad you like them! 😊
What a pro I've been doing it wrong diy for years thanks going to repaint my front panel door soon. Thanks feel more confident now.
That is great news, hope all goes well for you 😊
Thank you for posting this video. The last time I tried to paint a door I made a right mess of it and I swore I’d never attempt it again. I’ve got a house full of doors that probably haven’t been painted for the last 20 years and I can’t afford to pay a professional to come in and paint all my doors and skirting boards etc but after watching your video I can see where I went wrong before so will have another go.
Hope all goes well with the decorating Jo. Thank you for the positive feedback and do let me know how you get on 😊
After watching 5 videos how to paint wooden doors your video is the best. Thanks Big 👍🏼
Great to hear!
Something very therapeutic watching somebody painting. Good video thank you for the tips.
Thanks Lynne, glad you enjoyed the video 😊
Excellent tutorial for a sloppy DIY’er like me. Thanks Aubrey.
Glad it was helpful John. I am sure you will be producing work of the highest quality from now on 😊
Amazing video - very helpful for someone who is trying to paint her first door.
Glad it was helpful Cam, hope all goes well with the decorating 😊
Thank you Aubrey, now I know how it should be done, well, hopefully 👌👌
Good luck with the decorating, hope all goes well for you Wardis 😊
Thank you for your video so detailed and easy! Can’t wait to try this with my doors 😊
Glad you found the video helpful Claudia, hope all goes well with the decorating 😊
Really useful video. I'm an (occasionally) keen DIYer and found Aubrey's demonstration and explanations really easy to follow. Exactly what I was looking for to prevent me from creating a dog's breakfast. Many thanks.
That is good to know, hope all goes well for you Colin 😊
I painted my front door a few years ago. It turned out ok, but not great by any measure. Now that I have seen Aubrey's video I can't wait to re-paint it, the proper way. Thanks so much for this great video.
That is great news Susan, hope all goes well for you 😊
watching this i can imagine " The Candle Man " pulling out a 9 inch roller and walloping it then laying it all off in under 3 mins. But this method is pure class. Thanks for sharing your techniques .
Thank you Mandy, glad you found my method useful 👍
That's because he is on price, he's only doing that on building sites because the quicker he completes a property the more money he makes. I do get your point though, this way is the way you're taught in college(which I was taught), would even use some wet and dry sandpaper to get the door feeling like glass 😂
Cheers mate!... very helpful..... Wife is away so I am doing a little home decorating...
Thanks Brendan, hope all goes well with the decorating and she is pleased with your efforts 😊
Great job!!
This is exactly the way I paint doors if I'm only using a brush. Otherwise, I brush only brush the grooves on the #1's and roll all the parts by your number pattern with a foam roller and tip it out with a brush.
Yes, I do the same when I roll a panel door. 😊
Can you explain what you mean by "tip it out" please?
Fantastic mate!! Couldn't learn this any better!!
That is brilliant news, hope all goes well with the decorating Fred 😊
Great tutorial. Thanks for taking the time to share.
Glad it was helpful Gordon 😊
Thank you for this excellent video. I love the improvised door stop, it worked great for me. Carry On Sir.
That is brilliant news, hope all goes well with the decorating 😊
Thank you very much for this, sir! I'm off to go paint!
Hope all goes well for you 😊
first good video i have seen in UA-cam about door painting. i do same way but anyway if i have quick dry egshel is still problem to paint Perfect...
Great blog most helpful! Thank you.
Glad it was helpful 😊
I needed this right now!!!

Painting by numbers 👍
Brilliant video. You're good Aubrey. Subscribed. You are going to make my DIY life easier my friend.
Awesome! Thank you! 😊
Nice one 🙌 - This video gave me the confidence to do a really smart job!
That is great to hear Andy 😊
very informative and helpful, thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Your video was very well explained. I am going to try painting a door inside a bathroom. I am anxious but it better to have tried something to find out my skills. Thank you for your video.
I am glad you have found the video helpful. I hope all goes well with the bathroom door for you 😊
Nice tutorial. Oddly enough, I've been painting my 6-panel doors as part of a my house remodel and unknowingly followed this exact sequence, but I like using a 4 or 6" roller for the flat parts. Much faster and gives me an even coat with no brush marks.
Exactly see my comment 👍
Love these tutorials thank you
Glad you like them! 😊
New to painting doors due to the painters I know are totally booked up
Never realised how much preparation goes into painting a door
Anyway, I kept checking your video each time, to make sure I was doing it properly with the 1,2,3,4 system
I'm so happy now and (exhausted)
Now to the next one. Only 11 more to paint 😱
Goodness me Joanne you are going to be busy. Glad my video was helpful for you. Hope all goes well with the decorating 😊
@@AubreysAbsoluteDecorating Just have to get in the mindset to keep going 😂
Fantastic tutorial, thank you very much sir.
Glad you found the video helpful 😊
Excellent video. Cheers
Thank you, glad you found the video helpful.
This is the third video i watched - I;ve done maybe a dozen doors but def not as good as this pro! This is the only video I could LIKE or subscribe to - well done!
That is good to know, thanks Wade 😊
Nicely done. Thank you.

Excellent. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Fantastic , your tutorial worked wonders , thank you sir
That is great news 😊
A great help, many thanks.
Glad it helped.
Just used this system to paint the interior side of metal entry door. Poor door suffered through two previous paint jobs that, ahem, weren't very professional. This time around, I think it looks a lot better. Even better the new semigloss finish is consistent with the finish on my 8 interior doors. Thanks, Aubrey!
That is excellent news Martha. Glad to hear it all went well for you.
