So, you’re standing in front of your garage door, wondering whether it’s time for a sand down and a fresh coat of paint or if it’s better to bid farewell to the old faithful. One question that always pops up in this scenario is, “Is it time to upgrade my garage door?” 

Should I Paint My Old Garage Door?

The short answer? Yes, painting your garage door is an option. But it’s crucial to tread carefully and consider a few factors before picking up the paintbrush. 

First and foremost, you’ll need high-quality exterior garage door paint and an expert hand for proper application. Thorough research and proper surface preparation are essential; you'll need to sanding down rough spots and blisters/flaking paint and applying anti-rust paint to metal garage doors.

But here’s the real sticking point: even with meticulous preparation and a flawless paint job, there’s always the looming threat of paint peeling and weathering around the corner. This means you’ll likely find yourself facing maintenance costs sooner than expected, not to mention the hassle of touch-ups and repairs down the road.
