How to Prevent Dust on Painted Doors

Painted doors collect dust because they are touched often, sit in moving air, and have trim edges where dust settles.

For a door repaint, RepelX can be mixed into compatible interior paint to help the finished surface hold less dust from static.

Clean and prep first

Wash doors before you paint, especially near handles, panels, and edges. Follow your paint manufacturer prep directions so the coating bonds properly.

Why doors look dusty

Doors sit in airflow and get touched constantly. Fine dust and lint can cling to painted panels and trim because of static charge.

Where RepelX helps

Use RepelX with compatible interior latex or acrylic paint at 1 fl oz per gallon. Stir thoroughly, then paint the door normally.

Where to test

Good test doors include hallway doors, closet doors, laundry room doors, garage entry doors, office doors, and production-area interior doors.
