I’d like to paint my garage door. It’s metal and sectioned (3 sections). What’s the easiest way to paint it? What type of paint should I use? Thanks!

      If your door has loose chips scrape off the loose paint,since this is metal if bare metal is showing you need to buy a metal primer. Then paint your door with 2 coats of acrylic paint.acrylic paint is more flexable and will last longer on items that have movement. These item can be purchased at
      most lumber yards,lowes,menards,walmart

      You should use a exterior paint and use a spray gun if you can get one
