Steel Door

can you faux wood finish a steel door?

I just purchased a steel door and someone said that saw a steel door that was faux finished to look like wood? Also, now I hear a lot of people saying the paint on steel door really peels?

Yes, there is faux graining tool. It is a rubber, I believe, maybe plastic, curved piece with a handle. You apply either paint or stain with it. You randomly rock the the tool back and forth to create the effect of wood. You may want to practice on a scrap piece of painted drywall or plywood, first. Then let dry completely. Needless to say, don’t wipe the stain off. You may want to use an under coat of paint to create a deeper effect. Probably lighter than the faux finish. Also important use a spray on polyurethane to seal. I usually suggest varnish, but any brush work after the finish will pull the finish off or at least distort it. I’d go to a paint store, like Sherwin Williams or Porter, and they can give you more tips. I’d avoid Lowe’s or Home Depot on this one.
