Respray composite APeer door

Does anyone know if composite Apeer doors can be re sprayed, what type of colour is recommended and how to do it? We’re changing the garage door to charcoal and the front door is sage colour about 5yrs old so don’t want to replace it.

    What a lovely front door. Do you need to change it? The front door and garage doors don’t have to match. Sorry have no idea in the respraying question!

    Yes, that is a lovely door! I’m smiling because I’m planning to paint my anthracite composite front door a pale silvery sage. I’ll use Zinsser Allcoat Exterior, probably RAL7044, and a brush. The colour of your door would be perfect 😁

    Front door looks nice but I understand the want to change to match garage. Heard spray paint gives an even finish. Should also check warranty on door to make sure this doesn’t invalidate it.
    Sorry I know this is of no help!
    Out of curiosity does the opaque glass still let good amount of light in? Told it makes no difference to clear but just gives more privacy?

    Is it out of the question to paint the garage door instead?

    @debzip the opaque glass lets a lot of light in , and definitely more privacy. It does a great job, my hallway gets all the sun first thing in the morning and very bright.

    We have to change the garage door unfortunately as it’s a motorised one and because we’re converting part of the garage into a utility we need to get rid of the door unfortunately to gain that space where motor sits ☹️
    The door is great condition but no choice I’m afraid

    The other option would be to l ave the door as is and get the roller garage door in white 🤔
    But I like the look of charcoal doors/garage they’re in style currently.. big dilemma now!!

    You could do the charcoal garage door first and see if you think it works with the current front door, then paint the door if you feel it needs it?
