  • See an easy solution to fix a faded fiberglass exterior door without stripping the top coat! We share our surprise paint hack that made this an easy, quick and budget-friendly DIY weekend project. We restored our dull and weathered front door to make it look like new again. Now it is refinished and protected from the sun! Older homes (and doors) can go from drab to fab with a little home improvement with love! Hope this video inspires your next home improvement project! ‪@DIYPowerCouple‬

    Am so happy that I found this video. I have a similar but full glass unit. I was quoted about a thousand dollars to redo my unit. I was literally about to schedule when I thought maybe there is a DIY video. ...and there y'all were. Nobody likes to go first, but now I am motivated and will be going to buy materials today. How 'bout doing a video about repainting a tub?

    • @DIYPowerCouple

      Dave, it's still holding up...looks just like it does in the video. No cracking or anything. Remember, we used leftover waterproofing stain and sealer from our 5 gallon can (not regular paint). Let us know how your project turns out. Thanks for watching! -DIYPC 😃

    • @DIYPowerCouple
      @DIYPowerCouple  Před 2 měsíci

      Yes,
      1. keep the door open until it dries or it will stick to the inside threshold
      2. Use long paint strokes whenever possible to minimize having a "weird" look in different places
      3. Use exterior paint...it makes a big difference after the sun hits it or after a hard rain
      4. Take your time and know that - YOU CAN DIY TOO!
      Please let us know how it goes. Best, DIYPC

      The paint still looks better than the original coating. We had a little peeling around the window trim in the same spot as before.

      @@DIYPowerCouple Thank you for your reply. I was told by a worker at Home Depot that you had to have fiberglass doors custom painted with a special spray paint if you purchased an unfinished fiberglass door. I'm glad to see your door as well as a few others I've seen came out beautifully. I'm hopeful. Thanks again for the content.

  • @nzdpnz
    @nzdpnz Před 2 lety +1

    Fibreglass is a resin, almost like a plastic coating. Timber fence stain will never last long on this. Looks great on vdo, but in reality, will look crap again in very short time. Acrylic will never adhere well, unless a special primer has been used. Like your enthusiasm , but you are giving false advice to the DIY watchers. NB : fibreglass repairs are my trade, so this is just my opinion . .not a criticism

    • @DIYPowerCouple
      @DIYPowerCouple  Před 2 lety

      Thanks for your feedback. Surprisingly, the fence coating is holding up well. It seems thicker than a stain.
