Our daughter’s room had powder-coated aluminium windows but the colour had started to lose the original charm. My wife wanted to get it repainted but I wasn’t sure if painting over powder-coated aluminium was a good idea. So, I researched, ‘can you paint powder coated aluminium windows’, and realised it’s possible but requires professional intervention if you’re not skilled enough. However, I can share a few necessary steps that I came across.

How to Paint Powder Coated Aluminium Window Frames?

If you have old paint on your windows, you must remove it using a paint stripper, before

repainting powder coated aluminium window frames. Here are the steps you can follow.

  • You can use a detergent solution to wash off the entire surface, but make sure you let it dry completely before continuing. 

  • If your windows’ coating is chalky or corroded, use a nylon pad to remove the white rust. In case of red rust, you can use a power sander to smoothen the surface. 

  • To ensure the paint sticks to the aluminium, you must sand the windows to remove any gloss from the powder coating. 

  • Cover any surfaces that you don’t want the paint to stick on. You can use plastic sheets to protect the finished surfaces. 

  • Once your window is clean, apply the primer immediately and leave it to dry. If your primer doesn’t stick properly, you might need more sanding to ensure an even surface.

  • You can select your desired colour and gloss best suitable for powder-coated surfaces. 

  • Finally, you can use various thin powdered coats instead of one thick coat and let it dry.

If you’re unsure, consult a professional who can suggest the right product. I hope this gives you an insight on
