In a previous post, I discussed the issues with the living room door. As mentioned, I'm not 100% happy with this door, but it works and it's free, so it's great! The next step in the door saga was painting to help it blend in with the decor. One side was white (with many stains) and the exterior (now sunroom) side was wood with peeling varnish.
red on both sides of the room
After sanding for hours, I taped off the glass to prime all surfaces. There were quite a few pits and gouges, but I left them as is (for character). The entire thing was primed and painted; sunroom side red to match the lockers on the opposite wall and living room side a pale blue-grey. The funny thing about this project is now the door looks so good it's nicer than most of the other woodwork in the house. I just can't win.
