Hammerite Garage Door Paint is designed for homeowners looking to restore or protect metal and wooden garage doors with a resilient, high-gloss finish. This solvent-based paint offers excellent durability against environmental wear, preventing flaking and discoloration. While it provides a professional-grade aesthetic, it is strictly intended for outdoor use and requires careful surface preparation to ensure optimal adhesion and finish longevity.

No, this product is specifically formulated for outdoor use only.
Depending on the existing colour, 1 or 2 coats are typically sufficient, though a strong colour change may require 2 or more.
Use white spirit or Hammerite Brush Cleaner & Thinners immediately after use.
For bare aluminium, galvanised steel, or rusty areas, it is highly recommended to use a suitable primer like Hammerite No1 Rustbeater.
The paint is touch-dry in 4-6 hours, but you must wait at least 16 hours before applying a second coat.
Apply thinner coats and ensure the ambient temperature is within the recommended 8-25°C range.
Ensure the surface was thoroughly degreased and sanded. Verify that a suitable primer was used on bare metal or aluminium.
Ensure the surface was properly prepared and abraded before painting. Avoid painting in direct, intense sunlight which can cause the paint to dry too quickly.
To achieve the best finish, ensure your surface is completely dry and free from oil, grease, and old, flaking paint. Lightly abrade glossy surfaces with abrasive paper to provide a 'key' for the paint to grip. If you are painting bare aluminium or galvanised steel, always use a dedicated metal primer first.
Application can be handled with a high-quality brush or roller. Stir the paint gently before use—avoid vigorous mixing to prevent introducing air bubbles. Once applied, allow 4-6 hours for the paint to be touch-dry, and wait at least 16 hours before applying a second coat. After completion, clean your brushes using white spirit or a professional-grade brush cleaner.
