We have a million painted-over doorknobs and hinges that I want to get to someday. I’m glad to know that I shouldn’t waste my time with the crockpot method. I was never really into the idea of putting old paint in my crockpot anyway! Your doors look great! I like the black and white.

What a little vinegar can do… 😉 and such exciting news to read you’re moving!! I’m curious to read where you will move to!
If your dad has great tips on how to get doors (that have been painted over for 1000 times already) looking great again, you can share away here! 🙂 Our doors in our home are repainted a few times by the previous owners in a terrible way. They are now white, but some dark green paint is peeking through via scratches (from the dog)…. We want to start cleaning them up, but we are delaying that project everytime (we think it will be a LOT of work)… 😉

A quality spray paint job makes all the difference, too.
