I must paint the one back storm door that exits the old laundry room, and let me tell you, it is a chore. It is an antique door with twelve little windows in it, and I had to scrape off the old glazing around the windows and then putty each one. Then I had to sand it, and now I must finish painting it. The sun was hot, so I kept a good cold bottle of water nearby to help keep me hydrated. Nothing better than some ice cold spring water on a hot day.
I feel for you Rick, two of my doors in our kitchen that I have just painted each had twelve little glass panes......hard to paint & keep within the wood. I did start off with masking tape but in the end as they had wide edges I just had a steady hand but the bottom ones on the upper side were a trial? No puttying to do like you thank goodness!
I got tired just reading about it! Good to stay hydrated in the heat. You must not have too much humidity. That bottle would have been running with drops here.
YEP!!! I AGREE A RAZOR BLADE DOES SCRAPE OFF THE PAINT ON THE GLASS,BEEN THERE, DONE THAT.I AM SURE IT WILL LOOK NICE IN THE END! HAPPY PAINTING,LIKE MY OLD PAL WOULD SAY!!!( BOB ROSS)
