Aluminium window painting Gold Coast and beyond

Aluminium Window Painting Across the Gold Coast | RepaintPro’s Complete Guide

If your aluminium window frames are faded, oxidised, or just plain outdated, you’re not alone.

From Palm Beach to Pimpama, aluminium frames are one of the most common architectural features on homes across the Gold Coast. They’re durable, low-maintenance — and after 10–15 years, they almost always start to look tired. That’s where we come in.

At RepaintPro, we specialise in on-site aluminium window repainting — using trade-quality primers, multiple topcoats, and a professional HVLP spraying system that gives a factory-level finish without removal.

Let’s dive in — starting with the big question:

Can You Paint Aluminium Window Frames?

Yes. And not only can you — it’s the smartest, most cost-effective way to modernise your home’s exterior.

Most aluminium window frames on the Gold Coast are powder-coated in colours like:

Bronze Silver White Primrose Off-green or custom tones from the 80s and 90s

They fade, flake, or oxidise — especially in full sun or near the ocean.

Our system:

Works on powder-coated aluminium Lasts 8+ years when properly maintained Looks like a brand-new factory finish

And best of all — we do it on-site, without removing the frames.

Our 6-Step Repainting System

1. Inspection + Quote

We start with photos. You send us:

Pictures of your frames Your suburb Colour you want Whether your screens will be removed

We reply with a fixed quote — including GST, primer, materials, labour, and any extras.

2. Cleaning

First, we use a solvent-based cleaner to remove:

Wax Grease Insect spray residue Airborne pollutants

It’s the base of good adhesion. No shortcuts here.

3. Abrasive Sanding

We mechanically sand every frame to remove:

Chalking powder coat Microscopic contaminants UV-damaged surface layer

This gives the primer something to bite into — crucial for long-term durability.

4. Full Masking

We mask off everything:

Glass Render Tiles Garden features Plants, paving, walls, flyscreens

Taping matters. We only use high-grade masking tape for sharp edge lines and minimal cleanup.

5. Primer – Black or White?

We use Norglass All Surface Primer, which is:

Designed for aluminium Ultra-tough UV resistant Proven in Queensland weather

We apply it using HVLP spraying, which gives smooth atomisation and control.

???? White primer is used under Surfmist, Pearl White, and other light colours.

???? Black primer is used under Monument, Woodland Grey, Basalt, and darker tones.

6. Topcoat – 2–4 Layers

Our topcoats are:

Two-pack polyurethane (trade-grade) UV-resistant Gloss, satin, or matte finish Sprayed in 2–4 coats, depending on colour and coverage

The result? Factory-finish smoothness. No brush marks. No roller texture. Just clean lines and a long-lasting finish.

Popular Colours for Aluminium Window Painting

Some of the most requested colours include:

???? Monument – Deep modern grey with blue undertones ???? Surfmist – Light warm white, very popular on render ???? Pearl White – Clean bright white for a crisp finish ???? Woodland Grey – Natural charcoal tone ???? Basalt – Bold modern mid-grey ???? Classic Cream – Heritage vibe with modern durability

We colour-match to:

Colorbond Dulux Taubmans Existing roof, render, or fencing Custom client-supplied tones

Can You Paint Other Aluminium Items?

Absolutely. In addition to windows, we regularly repaint:

???? Garage doors – roller, sectional, and tilt-style ???? Sliding glass doors – full frame systems ???? Security screens – removable, re-sprayed, and re-meshed ???? Fences and gates – slatted, tubular, or privacy styles ???? Pool fencing – Monument and black are favourites ???? Shopfronts – commercial entryways and mullions

The same process applies — cleaning, sanding, primer, topcoat.

Why Repainting Beats Replacing

New window frames are costly, messy, and usually unnecessary.

Here’s why clients choose repainting instead:

???? Costs 60–80% less than replacement ???? No need to remove render, plaster, or seals ???? Faster – done in days, not weeks ???? Any colour you want – no limited range ???? Less mess – no demolition, no rubbish removal ♻️ Eco-friendly – reuse what you already have

How Long Does It Last?

We offer a 6-year workmanship warranty — but we have jobs that still look great after 8–10 years.

The keys to longevity:

Proper surface cleaning Mechanical sanding Correct primer Multiple topcoats No shortcuts

We don’t do “one-coat and hope” systems. Our film build is robust — and it shows.

Real Jobs We’ve Done

???? Broadbeach Waters – Bronze to Monument

Full canal-front home with bronze frames that looked 30 years old. Prepped, sprayed with black primer, and top-coated in Monument gloss. Finished in 3 days — looks like a new build.

???? Reedy Creek – Silver to Surfmist

Older brick home, redone in pale render. Original silver frames stood out badly. Sprayed white primer and Surfmist topcoat. Now it all flows.

???? Tallai – Two-Storey Transformation

Massive property in the hills. Needed 2-storey access, scaffolding arranged by us. All window frames and sliding doors painted in Pearl White. 6-day turnaround.

???? Southport Shopfront – Commercial Respray

Retail shop needed powder coat updated to match new branding. Mullions, doors, and kickplates sprayed in Basalt gloss. We used 2-pack commercial finishes for extra durability.

Frequently Asked Questions

❓ Do I need to remove my flyscreens?

You can — or we can do it for you. We charge a set rate for security screen removal and respraying. This is the best way to ensure a seamless finish.

❓ Will the paint smell?

We recommend being outside or away during spraying. Most of the smell disappears after a few hours once dry.

❓ Do you spray inside frames too?

Yes, internal frames can be sprayed if access and masking allow. We quote this as an extra service.

❓ Can you match my garage door?

Absolutely. We match garage doors, fences, or roofing for a uniform look.

❓ Do I need to be home?

Not during spray work — and we often recommend being out while it’s in progress. We work around your schedule.

❓ Will it chip or peel?

Not if the surface is properly prepared. We’ve had revisits on jobs 8 years later — still holding strong.
