Reds can be hard to work with, but if you know what you're doing, you can make it easier on yourself. When you are using reds, your best bet is to use a primer that is tinted as close to red as possible. If that isn't possible, then tint your primer towards a light grey - you'll have an easier time getting the color and sheen to show exactly as you prefer! Either way, you'll likely need multiple coats to acquire the ideal aesthetic in your finished product.
Finishing these doors was tough. We had to keep over-spray to an extreme minimum, as there were other trades working all around us. All the while, the wind was blowing, and this allows for dust to constantly land in your finish, causing a "gritty" feel. We wanted a finish that was as smooth as butter, so we sanded and re-finished these doors several times. Each door was seven feet wide, and twenty feet tall!
