Aluminium Window Painting Gold Coast | Your Questions Answered by RepaintPro

Can Aluminium Windows Really Be Painted?

Yes — and not only can they be painted, they can be painted to look like they just rolled out of the factory in a brand-new colour. This is one of the biggest myths we’ve had to debunk over the years. With the right cleaning, sanding, and priming system, aluminium frames can hold a painted finish for many, many years.

We’ve been specialising in this since 2015, and countless projects across the Gold Coast are proof of how durable and flawless the results are.

Why Paint Instead of Replace?

Replacement costs on the Gold Coast often run into tens of thousands of dollars. New windows, trades, plaster repair, render patching — it all adds up fast.

Painting, on the other hand, is:

Faster (most homes completed in about a week).

Cleaner (no walls or tiles removed).

Affordable (a fraction of replacement).

Flexible (choose almost any colour).


For most homeowners, it’s the difference between putting off a renovation and actually completing it now.

What’s the Process?

This is where professional experience matters. At RepaintPro, every job follows a careful system:

1. Masking – green tape, plastic, and drop sheets protect all areas.


2. Cleaning – wax and grease remover ensures frames are contaminant-free.


3. Sanding – mechanical abrasion creates the perfect surface profile.


4. Priming – an adhesion-promoting primer built for aluminium.


5. Spraying – multiple coats sprayed with HVLP equipment for a flawless finish.


6. Tape Removal – revealing razor-sharp lines.


7. Final Walkthrough – nothing left to chance.

How Long Does It Last?

This is one of the most common questions we’re asked. The answer? Years and years.

Our paint systems, combined with thorough prep, last just as long as the original powder coating. Jobs revisited more than 8 years later still look excellent. Add our 6-year workmanship warranty backed by the QBCC, and you know you’re covered.

What Colours Are Popular on the Gold Coast?

Colour preferences often follow design trends. Right now, the most in-demand shades are:

Satin Black – clean, bold, modern.

Monument (Charcoal) – deep and architectural.

Pearl White – classic and timeless.

Silver/Metallic – sleek, especially in apartments.


But we can match almost any colour you want.


—

Can Aluminium Security Screens Be Painted Too?

Yes! Diamond grille doors, sliding screens, or even slatted aluminium fencing can all be resprayed. Many homeowners take this opportunity to mesh and spray screens so they match freshly painted windows.

It’s often the final touch that makes a whole property look brand new.


—

Do You Work on Apartments and High-Rises?

Yes — with a note. Body corporates generally control external appearances, so external frames may not be allowed unless part of a building-wide update. However, internal window frames can almost always be painted.

We’ve completed dozens of internal-only resprays for apartments in Surfers Paradise, Broadbeach, and Main Beach where owners wanted to modernise inside their unit.


—

What If I’m Renovating My Home?

This is the perfect time to repaint. Renovations often bring new kitchens, flooring, and paint colours. But old aluminium frames — often cream, bronze, or faded — clash badly.

Painting frames during a renovation means:

Everything ties together.

You avoid the mess of replacing windows.

You can choose colours that match your new look.



—

Do You Need to Be Home While We Spray?

Not necessarily. Some clients stay, others go out. Because we wear protective gear and the smell lingers for a few hours, many prefer to head out for the day. Either way works fine.


—

How Fast Is the Process?

For an average Gold Coast home, about a week. Larger homes can stretch closer to two weeks. We don’t cut corners — multiple top coats are applied for proper film build and durability.


—

What About Prep on the Day?

We handle everything:

Covering gardens and paths.

Masking glass and walls.

Moving or taping blinds and curtains (noting older fittings can be brittle).

Removing and respraying screens if required.
