32+ House Door Painting UK. Paint the door from the top down, using a wide brush for corners or crevices and a small roller for flat panels. Start by applying the primer.
Your front door trim is also a candidate for painting.
Before you start painting, you'll have to clean, sand, and prime your door. I like to use a 1 1/2″ brush to paint the recessed molding areas followed by a 4″ roller for the flat surfaces in the middle. So if you're painting a door you can't live without, like a bathroom or exterior door, start first thing in the morning so it can be back in service by day's end. If your door is paneled, start with the panels.
