I will not be much help on the garage doors, however I just redid about all of our exterior doors. What I did was scrub them down and then lightly sanded them in tough spots. (Are you planning to take off the current latex paint before re-apply a new color? If so, there is a whole process for that) We used Behr Premium Plus Ultra Exterior Flat and have loved the results and especially the price. I am no expert though, just hope I could be of some help! Best of luck and have fun! Here is a link that might be useful: Behr Premium Plus Exterior

Wow! Yes, your blog is the one I had visited. What a pleasure to have such a talented artist visit us here! ;o) Your painted roses are beautiful, and you are very talented. And yes, this forum is for "chatting" about anything painting related and we often share pictures of our projects as well. We also have a "gallery" section so the pictures will stay on longer, and a "conversations" section where we can chat about even non-painting related topics. Do you work mostly in oils or acrylics? I love your projects page too, and hope you will keep adding to it. It is so fun to see how you turn a forlorn piece of furniture into an amazingly beautiful one. We would welcome any advice or tips you might have on the projects or regarding painting roses. I hope you enjoy visiting with us here, please come by anytime. Luvs

One excellent resource. My policy worked for me for over 30 years. Evaluate. Educate. Execute.

My living room and dining room abut each other. The first picture is the DR; the second two pictures are the LR. I am looking for a paint color that will give me a tone on tone look. What exact color would you choose? Thanks so much.
