Door panels are among the most commonly refinished areas on vehicles. They're exposed to frequent impact, scratches, and wear. Using forge refinished painting and an LVLP spray gun, you can achieve factory-level results with precise control and minimal overspray.
Large flat areas = high visibility of imperfections
Often need blending with adjacent panels
Tight edges and trim can trap overspray
Sand entire panel with P600–P800 grit
Feather damaged areas with finer paper
Mask around windows, handles, and trim
Clean thoroughly with wax and grease remover
Use 1.3mm tip
Set air cap pressure to 12–14 PSI
Apply 2–3 even coats, maintaining 50% overlap
Maintain consistent speed and distance (6–7 inches)
Switch to 1.4mm tip
Apply 2 wet coats
Let flash for 10–15 minutes
Use a drop coat on metallics for flake control
An LVLP spray gun allows tight edge control, essential for trimming near moldings. Combined with the careful layering of forge refinished painting, this approach helps avoid hard lines, runs, or dry spray - especially important for car painting of exterior doors.
Once cured, wet sand with 2000 grit and machine polish for a high-gloss finish that blends seamlessly with the rest of the vehicle.

These SK-300 spray guns are fantastic! Love the no oring design, less leakage and easy maintenance. The atomization is perfect for automotive painting. Highly recommend!
