How do you remove spray paint from doors?

Answer 1

Need to know the reason. Sanding it off is easy, but prepping for paint takes experience assuming it's on a car. If not, need to know substrait. If you have overspray or paint over your present paint (on a car) abd it's light, try to buff it out with wax and a pad on a drill.

Answer 2

If you are going to repaint then all you have to do is "buff it up" so you take the shine off the old paint. If it's a wood door and you want it right down to the wood then you are going to have to use an electric sander (fine grit sandpaper) and do the major part of it and then hand sand (fine grit) any grooves the door may have. Seal it and stain it.

Answer 3

Yes. You can paint your garage door. There is no law against that. The only thing you have to worry about is the rules of your Home Owners Association (HOA). Verify that your HOA will accept the colors you plan to use. Otherwise, you may have problems with them.

Answer 4

You can get it of by using a heat gun and a scraper. This is probably best done in a well ventilated area. There are also paint removers available for doing this job that you just paint on wait and scrape of.

Answer 5

I take them off, remove handles and hinges and prime them, then paint with a roller and a sash brush. I almost always fit new hinges and handles, but sometimes spraypaint the handles for a 'new' look.

Answer 6

Paint thinner will work well, but the easiest way to do it is to use a scraper to remove the paint. it takes some elbow grease and some hard work but the work is worth the time and effort put into this extremely exhausting task

Answer 7

Use a chemical stripper ( carefully, and outside, wear mask and gloves)

Answer 8

Goof Off is best.
