- Premium 10-in-1 Multi-Tool

Step 1: Prep the door.

Remove all hardware.

Clean the door thoroughly. Then, use a Premium 10-in-1 Multi-Tool to fill any dents and fix other imperfections with putty. Let the putty fully dry.

Lightly sand the surface to ensure a smooth final result.

Thoroughly wipe the surface with a lint-free cloth to remove any dust.
Step 2: Tape.

Tape off any windows and the surrounding trim. Place a drop cloth on the ground.
Step 3: Plan your route & paint.

To maximize efficiency, use the diagram to guide the order in which you paint.

Use your Nylox™ brush to cut in and around windows and recess areas. Nylox™ brushes are super soft and create a perfect finish with no brush marks.

Use your Parrot™ mini roller to paint the flat areas of the door. Parrot’s quality mohair fabric is ideal for creating a smooth, mirror-like finish.
Once the paint is fully cured, peel off the tape and reattach the hardware.
