How to paint an old wooden door or window

Painting an old window or door is not a problem, but quite often because of too much layers of paint, even an updated door or windows look unattractive over the years. If you tear off the old layers of paint with a knife or a metal brush, it will take too much time, and the wood itself can be damaged. Instead, you can purchase a special gel in the construction market – washing, which in a matter of seconds will allow you to remove layers of old paint. Costs gel rubles 200 – 250, but saves a lot of time.

For example, you need to paint the door. Remove it from the hinges and take it to the street, or on the balcony. Wash thoroughly and clean all the contaminants, dry. Then, without shading, we apply a gel on the door and wait 10 minutes, after which we remove everything with a napkin, or with a hard brush. If there are no layers and the first time it was not possible to erase everything, you can repeat the procedure. The main thing is not to forget about the gel and not keep it on a tree too much, t. To. This is not very useful for wood. After you remove the paint, it is necessary to give the remnants of the wash to dry a little. Rinse the now “naked” door without paint, dry and apply a new one, or better two layers of paint. The door will look like just purchased in the store.
