Paint brush
Paint Tray
Semi-gloss paint

Mr. Victor Longpont hired my services to remove his garage door that had become damaged after a bad rain storm. The door had not been painted for over 30 years, the bottom of the door was damaged by a badly worn door sweep that allowed water into the bottom of the door.

This post shows the four steps to painting the inside of the wall and around the door edges.

Step 1: Above fig.1 shows the area around the door that needs to be painted. 
Step 2: Fig.2 shows the right part of the door is painted. White semi-gloss paint was used to get a clean cut look.
