Such a great tutorial, thank you!
You are most welcome! Thanks so much for the super thanks!! 😁
The door painting is so smooth it’s mesmerizing 😂
Those pink doors did turn out rather nice 😃
Thank you 🙏🏾
You are most welcome 🫡
About to do this when this sun comes down 😂🔥
Good luck!
Emerald urethane is incredible paint! My favorite off the shelf paint of any kind, especially when you get a nice mistint for $10
It’s still our current go-to trim paint 🤙
I have gotten my time down to about 7-10 minutes per side. I apply the paint with a mini roller 3/8" nap, then finish stroke with a 2.5" brush. I do all the panels and wipe around each one with a wet rag as i go. Then i do the cross sections top to bottom, then left and right verticals. This method is good for beginners because you can take your time. As you get better you can go faster and faster. Using a mini roller to apply trim paint then brushing it out has really upped our finish quality and speed.
I know a few dudes that do it that way and they get pretty quick with it. It’s a solid method 🤙
Friendly Tip! I will paint that panel door in 55 second with a 6'' fabric whizz roller and 2 1/2 gooseneck brush to cut the bottom, if the door is hanging. I also use the same tools for a garage panel door. Cheers! The Gooseneck guy!
I do not like the finish that a roller leaves on a grained door and that level of finish would not be acceptable on many of the jobs that I do. I use rollers for flat panel doors but never for a door that has a grain to it.
@@SuperVassarBrothersAny “painter” rolling garage doors is suspect at best
@@keithbalke6352that's the Way its been done for centuries. if you're good with a brush
Awesome execution, what paint line is being used?

I love your videos....This IS the best way to paint a 6 panel door. I have a question? I have to prime my doors before painting because they are enamel painted...I'd like to paint them with latex. Is this a good idea? Do I need to sand them? Advice?
So there are a lot of options for trim paint. If you’re going with a 100% acrylic then I’d recommend giving the doors a scuff sand with 150 grit sandpaper. Do a little section with your trim paint and see if it’s forming a good bond. If the paint is not sticking then you may need to prime with something like fresh start from Benjamin Moore. You could also use a hybrid paint like emerald urethane from Sherwin Williams. That adheres to almost everything.
I used that SW Emerald urethane enamel and it was very stinky, I couldn’t stay in the same area and my doors upstairs, I had to take them off their hinges and take them to my basement. But that method is awesome! Thanks
I’m glad you found it helpful! And yeah, the urethane has a bit of an odor…it stings the nostrils
I bought the Vegas brush and painted my interior door with Emerald, is it normal for the paint to dry fast as I’m painting? First time working with a soft bristle brush so definitely need more practice. I got to paint my door in 12 min tho
Depends on conditions. I’m not sure if you’re using emerald urethane or regular emerald. Emerald urethane has a pretty long open time. Also, you may also want to try a corona cortez. That brush is quicker than the Vegas. I’ve been shifting my use of the Vegas brushes to specialty applications, because it paints quite a bit slower than the Cortez.
Ive noticed you use a corona vegas brush. You have also recommended a corona cortez in the past. Wich one would you recommend for benjamin moore advance trim paint?? Thank you! 😊
I’d go with the Vegas for sure. It’s my favorite for trim paint and especially the hybrids.
@SuperVassarBrothers thank you so much! Sorry about asking on two different videos, but time was an issue, and I thought it increased my odds of an answer sooner. Anyways my wonderful wife noticed both brushes saved to our amazon cart account and went ahead and purchased both for me. Lol! Admittedly, I'm a cheapskate, and it drives her nuts. She said buying both was worth it to her to keep from seeing me go back and forth. She's not wrong! Lol! At the end of the day, they are only $20 bucks each ,give or take, and I'm going to use both of them, I'm quite sure. I was getting good results with my 3 inch premier Montauk and my 2 1/2 inch purdy. However, both were on the firm side. I'm hoping the corona vegas being on the soft side will give me even better results. I should have changed a long time ago ,especially considering it's your chosen brush. Thanks again! 😊
Corona brushes are the best! We switched to them 15 years ago. Started with the Excalibur chinex brushes and now we use the Vegas for interior trim. Have you tried satin cabinet coat? That's our favorite interior paint. It's also urethane based. We switched from Advance because we kept getting drips and lace curtains, especially when humidity is high!
Do you paint the top and bottom edges on new construction ?
Only if they’re visible from some vantage point in the house. There’s a better case for that for exterior doors.
It looks like the door was already painted at one point. If it wasn't and it was a 6 pnl hollow core straight from the box store, would you prime it anyway even though they sell it as "primed"?
That door is factory primed so you can go straight over it with your finish paint. The only reason you’d want to prime it would be if you were doing a big color shift like painting it black.
@@SuperVassarBrothers Going as black as my soul.
Thanks man. You've helped in settling a trending job site debate over here.
Happy New Year!

@@SuperVassarBrothers You’re an American Hero ! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Cool thanks for video
You’re welcome! I hope you find it useful 😃
why no priming first?
The door has already been painted with a latex trim paint so there’s no need to prime.
After I cut in, I use a finish roller...
We do that if it’s a flat panel door. If it’s a door that has a grain pattern to it then we brush the whole thing. I don’t like the look of doors that have a grain pattern and then are rolled.
@@SuperVassarBrothers I tip out as needed also....depending
I need an in depth detail video on painting honey oak trim and doors please 🙏
There are several videos on my channel about painting trim and doors. If you’re converting trim over from being stained then you may wanna start with this one czcams.com/video/Ptd9y2D45Vw/video.htmlsi=dp8eCAmacTpHgK6s
all flat panels should be painted vertically....
Hmmm, you have a case for rolling a flat panel door vertically, but if the door has a grain pattern and I’m brushing it then I’m following the grain pattern. Horizontal grain patterns get a horizontal stoke, at least when I do it.
