Aluminium Window Painting in Miami, Gold Coast

How RepaintPro Transforms Tired Frames into Sharp, Modern Features

“We are not here to sell you anything. But we are here to solve the problem of what to do with those ugly windows that don’t match anything anymore!”

Why Miami Homeowners Are Turning to Window Painting

Tucked between Burleigh Heads and Mermaid Beach, Miami is a pocket of the Gold Coast that mixes beachside charm with leafy residential zones. But whether you’re renovating a 1980s brick home or refreshing a coastal duplex, there’s one visual feature that stands out more than most — and often not for the right reasons:

☑️ Old aluminium windows in faded cream, silver, or bronze.

☑️ Louvres and sliding frames that scream “dated.”

☑️ Frames that don’t match your new render, tile, or roof colour.

☑️ Windows that cheapen the look of an otherwise beautiful home.

The good news? You don’t need to rip them out and start again.

You can paint them.

And when it’s done right — by specialists using a proper system — it looks just like new.

Can Aluminium Windows Be Painted?

Yes — and not just “touched up.”

We fully repaint aluminium frames onsite, using a proven process that delivers:

Professional, factory-like finishes Tough, long-lasting coatings UV protection and weather resistance Modern colours to match any aesthetic

In fact, we’ve been doing it across the Gold Coast for years — and Miami is one of the suburbs where the results stand out the most. The contrast of sharp Monument or Pearl White frames against rendered walls, palm trees, and surfboard fences is unbeatable.

The Miami Job: From Cream to Monument

On this particular Miami project, the client had:

A double-storey beachside home with cream aluminium frames Sliding doors, windows, and fixed panels A mix of security screens and insect screens Weathered finishes from years of salt and sun

The goal?

A full transformation to Monument gloss — the same deep charcoal you see on modern Colorbond roofing.

The result?

A home that looks brand new without the stress, cost, or waste of replacement.

Our Proven Process — Every Step Matters

We don’t guess. We follow a strict prep and application method that’s been tested on hundreds of aluminium surfaces.

1. Property Preparation

First up, we ensure the job site is ready:

Driveway cleared for van access Furniture moved away from windows Pets kept safe and secure Window coverings noted or removed Garden watered the day before (but not on the day!)

You’ll receive a checklist in advance so everything runs smoothly.

2. Cleaning & Surface Prep

We clean each frame thoroughly using a wax and grease remover, followed by mechanical sanding. This:

Removes oxidation (the chalky white residue) Gets rid of contaminants like silicone, polish, or bug spray Creates a surface profile for the primer to bond to

Sanding isn’t optional. It’s critical for adhesion and longevity.

3. Masking Like Pros

This is where amateurs fall short.

We:

Tape all glass edges with professional green tape Apply static cling film over each pane Cover floors, walls, and plants Use drop sheets and plastic sheeting for internal areas

The result? No overspray. No accidents. Just razor-sharp lines and a clean site.

4. Norglass All Surface Primer

We use Norglass white primer, ideal for aluminium and other LSE (low surface energy) materials.

It’s not just a grip coat — it:

Provides a colour base Enhances topcoat vibrancy Adds UV protection Locks in the surface prep work

We let it fully cure before painting, even if it takes an extra day.

5. Spraying the Topcoat

We apply multiple coats of premium-grade gloss or satin in your chosen colour — in this case, Monument gloss.

Our HVLP system creates a:

Smooth, factory-like finish Consistent film build Zero brush marks Deep, modern colour payoff

You can literally see the difference between one coat and a proper multi-coat finish.

6. Tape Removal — The Satisfying Part

We’ve become known for our “tape-pull” videos — where we peel back the green tape to reveal crisp lines and clean results. It’s not just satisfying; it’s proof of a job well masked, well painted, and done right.

What About Louvres and Screens?

Louvres

Louvre systems are tricky. But we’ve developed a method that works:

Individual masking of each blade Careful spraying from multiple angles Retention of movement and function

We don’t skip these. They’re part of the final look and deserve the same attention to detail.

Security Screens

If you’ve opted to include screens in your repaint, we:

Remove them carefully Spray them to match (or contrast) Re-mesh if needed Reinstall with stainless screws

Many painters won’t touch them — we do it every week.

Why Homeowners Choose RepaintPro

We’ve been trusted by families, renovators, and builders across Miami and beyond because:

✅ We’re QBCC licensed and fully insured ✅ Our work comes with a 6-year workmanship warranty ✅ We’ve been painting for four generations ✅ We specialise in aluminium window painting — it’s not a side job ✅ We finish jobs in 5 to 10 days, not rushed in a weekend ✅ We clean up, communicate, and care about the end result

This isn’t new for us — it’s our daily work.

Myth-Busting Time

Let’s take a moment to clear up some industry myths we’ve seen floating around:

❌ Myth 1: You can’t paint powder-coated aluminium

✔ You absolutely can — with proper prep and primer.

❌ Myth 2: Black paint lasts longer than white

✔ Not true. This is often said by painters avoiding proper masking. Both perform the same if applied correctly.

❌ Myth 3: You don’t need to remove flyscreens

✔ Sometimes yes — but removing them gives a cleaner result, especially if we’re spraying the frames behind them.

❌ Myth 4: One coat is enough

✔ It’s not. One coat won’t provide the required film build for long-term durability. We apply 2–4 coats.

❌ Myth 5: Louvres can’t be painted

✔ They can — if you know how to mask and spray them properly.

Real Customer Concerns We Address

We’ve built an FAQ system around the most common questions:

Q: Do I have to be home during the job?

No, not at all. We’ll keep you updated with photos, and you can return when the smell clears.

Q: What happens if fittings break?

We take care when removing blinds or curtains, but older plastic fittings can be brittle. We treat every home with care, but can’t take responsibility for pre-existing age damage.

Q: What if I have a two-storey house?

We do multi-storey homes regularly and organise the correct scaffolding or access equipment where needed.

Q: How long will it last?

Many of our jobs look excellent 8+ years later. Our work is backed by QBCC standards and a 6-year warranty.

Before & After — The Payoff

There’s no mistaking it.

The visual change from dull, oxidised frames to bold Monument gloss gave this Miami home:

Even the neighbours stopped to ask.

Summary — Why Painting Beats Replacing

✅ You avoid the mess, cost, and disruption of replacing frames.
