Repainting Powder Coated Aluminium Windows Gold Coast

Can Powder-Coated Aluminium Windows Be Repainted?

It’s one of the most common questions we hear from Gold Coast homeowners: “Can powder-coated aluminium windows actually be repainted?”

The short answer is yes — but it has to be done properly. Powder coating is tough, but over time it fades, chalks, or peels. Instead of replacing expensive frames, repainting powder-coated aluminium windows gives them a brand-new factory look, at a fraction of the cost.

Why Powder-Coated Aluminium Fades

Powder coating was designed as a durable finish, but here on the Gold Coast it faces harsh conditions:

Strong UV exposure – Sunlight breaks down pigments and binders.

Salt air – Coastal areas like Burleigh, Palm Beach, and Surfers Paradise see faster chalking.

Moisture and humidity – Encourages surface breakdown.


The result? Frames that look dull, chalky, or dated.

That’s where spray repainting steps in.

Our Proven System for Repainting Powder-Coated Frames

RepaintPro has developed a system specifically for powder-coated aluminium:

1. Surface cleaning – Remove all contaminants, dirt, and chalking.


2. Sanding & abrasion – Key the surface for adhesion. Powder coating is smooth, so this step is essential.


3. Degreasing – Ensure the aluminium is perfectly clean.


4. Priming – Apply specialist primers (single-pack for residential, 2PAC primers for commercial).


5. Spray coating – Apply multiple coats at correct microns using HVLP systems.


6. Finishing – Sharp tape removal, reinstalling screens, and detail work.



The finish is indistinguishable from new factory aluminium.

Why Spraying Works Better Than Brushing

Powder-coated aluminium is unforgiving. Brushing or rolling paint leaves streaks, poor adhesion, and results that don’t last.

Spray painting delivers:

Factory-like smoothness.

Razor-sharp masking on glass, render, tiles, and bricks.

Even film thickness across every surface.


That’s why aluminium frame spraying is the only professional way to repaint powder-coated aluminium.

Colour Options When Repainting Powder-Coated Windows

Most homeowners repaint in timeless neutrals:

Black – Disappears into the glass and suits modern architecture.

White – Bright, clean, perfect with shutters and Hamptons styling.

Monument – Strong, dark grey often matched to Colorbond roofs.

Surfmist – A soft coastal white-grey.

Ironstone – A deep neutral that works with stone and timber.


From our experience, 99% of repaints are black or white, with the rest spread between Monument, Surfmist, and Ironstone.
