Finish and preparation
The door arrives with a white base coat applied to the smooth faces, providing a clean foundation for on-site painting. The textured moulded surfaces are designed to accept paint finishes well. Before painting, inspect the door for any damage in transit and allow it to acclimatise to the room conditions for 48 hours. Light sanding may improve paint adhesion if desired. Use a suitable primer and quality interior paint to achieve your final finish.
