Aluminium Window Painters in Molendinar

Transforming Homes, One Frame at a Time — Without Replacing a Thing

Molendinar is one of those Gold Coast suburbs that quietly gets on with the job of being incredibly livable. With its mix of established homes, hidden acreage pockets, industrial zones, and residential estates — it’s a place where function meets form. But as with many homes built across the 1990s and 2000s, there’s a recurring detail that’s dating otherwise beautiful properties: the aluminium window frames.

Whether it’s bronze, faded cream, dull green, or oxidised silver anodised, ageing aluminium frames can make a well-maintained home look tired. And if you’re planning a repaint, render update, or even just trying to modernise a property for sale — those windows become the thing holding everything back.

That’s where RepaintPro comes in.

We’re the Gold Coast’s leading specialists in aluminium window painting, and Molendinar is right in the heart of our service zone.

What’s the Issue With Aluminium Frames?

Aluminium windows were fitted as standard for decades. They’re durable, low-maintenance, and weather resistant — but the powder-coated colours of the era haven’t aged well.

We see it all the time in Molendinar:

Brown windows on homes freshly painted white Green frames clashing with new grey roofs Cream frames that have yellowed with age Scratched or oxidised anodised silver

Most homeowners think the only solution is to replace the windows entirely — and that can cost tens of thousands of dollars.

But the truth is, we can respray those frames — on-site — and make them look factory new.

Why Painting is Better Than Replacing

Let’s be clear: replacement isn’t just expensive — it’s disruptive.

You’ll be cutting plaster, removing render, replacing reveals, and spending weeks in dust and delays.

With RepaintPro, we:

Don’t remove the windows Don’t damage the surrounding walls Don’t disrupt the interior Paint everything in place, fast and clean Deliver flawless, long-lasting finishes Save you thousands

And the results? You’d never know the frames weren’t brand new.

Real Molendinar Results: Satin Monument Over Bronze

We recently repainted an older Molendinar home with dark bronze window frames. The exterior had been updated with white and grey paint, but the windows stood out — for all the wrong reasons.

Our client wanted something modern but not too shiny — so they chose Satin Monument.

We:

Cleaned with wax and grease remover Mechanically abraded every frame Removed and resprayed all security screens Masked each pane with millimetre precision Applied 2–4 coats of topcoat Achieved a deep, satin finish with crisp tape pulls

The house looked completely modernised. All without removing a single frame.

The RepaintPro Aluminium Window Process

We’re often told: “You guys do more than just paint.” And it’s true. Repainting aluminium properly means treating it like a surface that doesn’t want to be painted — because that’s exactly what aluminium is.

Here’s our full process:

1. Initial Quote & Site Planning

You send us:

Photos of each window, door, and screen Your chosen colour Notes on whether screens will be removed Your address in Molendinar

We provide:

A detailed quote (no itemisation shown, total price only) Clear costings for screens and second-storey fees Fast communication and scheduling

2. Surface Preparation

We start by ensuring the surface is ready to bond.

Degreasing: wax and grease remover lifts sunscreen, insect spray, grime, and sap Abrasion: we sand every frame by hand and machine to open up the surface Dust control: we vacuum and tack cloth every edge Detail work: we sand inside corners and around silicone beads

3. Masking with Millimetre Precision

We’re known for our sharp masking work — especially on:

Colonial and French-style windows Louvre blades Sliding glass doors Small bathroom and laundry frames Security screens and diamond grilles

We mask around features — not over them. That means:

Clean lines No paint bridging No overspray A professional result every time

4. Priming for Maximum Adhesion

We use specially formulated primer for aluminium that:

Bonds to powder-coated and anodised surfaces Adheres to older and newer aluminium types Works on internal and external frames Sets a durable foundation for topcoat longevity

This primer is sprayed using HVLP equipment for even, controlled coverage.

5. Topcoating — Multiple Layers, Professional Finish

Your topcoat colour is applied in multiple coats — usually 2–4 — for optimal film build and depth.

Popular finishes in Molendinar include:

Gloss Black for modern contrast Satin Monument for soft architectural finish Surfmist for clean Hamptons-style homes Pearl White for that bright, fresh look Dune, Basalt, Woodland Grey, and other Colorbond tones

Every job is different — but the care and process stay the same.

6. Final Touches & Reassembly

Once spraying is complete, we:

Pull tape slowly and cleanly Check every line, corner, and sill Reinstall all flyscreens and door rollers Re-mesh where required Clean the glass and work areas Walk through the site with you before packing down

Do You Paint Security Screens?

Absolutely. We paint:

Diamond grille screens Hinged and sliding security doors Decorative panels Fixed window screens Internal mesh barriers

Most Molendinar homes have at least a few security screens — and they’re best painted off the window, not taped up.

We remove, spray, and reinstall them to match your new window colour perfectly.

What About Internal Frames?

Yes — we also paint internal aluminium frames.

You’ll find these in:

Bathrooms and ensuites Laundry sliding windows Kitchen louvres Rear sliders and patio doors

We work neatly inside:

Floors are masked and protected Furniture is covered Blinds are taped out of the way Low-odour systems are used indoors Most jobs can be done while you remain at home

Just let us know what’s internal and we’ll include it in the quote.

How Long Does It Last?

We’re fully licensed by the QBCC and offer a 6-year workmanship warranty on all projects.

But in reality? Our finishes go well beyond that. We’ve revisited jobs done 8–10 years ago that still look excellent.

Durability comes down to:

Correct surface prep Adequate primer coverage Minimum two topcoats Clean site conditions Skill and experience

That’s why we don’t cut corners. We want your frames to look brand new for years to come.

FAQs — Answered

Q: Do I need to remove blinds or curtains?

A: Slightly — but we recommend staying out of freshly sprayed areas for 4–5 hours.

Q: Can you paint just some windows?

A: Yes — we can paint one window or the whole house. No job is too small.

Q: Do I have to be home?

A: No — we often work while homeowners are at work or away.

Q: What colours can I choose?

A: Any colour — we colour-match to Colorbond, Dulux, Haymes, or your own custom shade.
