Choosing Aluminium Window Colours Gold Coast

Why Window Colour Choices Matter

When you look at a house, the windows make up a huge portion of what you see. Glass often reads as a dark mirror, and the aluminium frames act as the outline that ties the whole façade together. Get the colour wrong, and it clashes with everything else. Get it right, and it disappears or enhances the design.

On the Gold Coast, aluminium window frames from past decades are often cream, bronze, or silver. They instantly date a property and rarely suit today’s renovations. That’s why choosing the right colour when repainting your frames is such an important decision.

At RepaintPro, we’ve sprayed thousands of windows and know exactly what works in different settings.

What We’ve Learned From Gold Coast Projects

Here’s the reality of colour choices for aluminium window spraying:

Black – Frames almost disappear into the glass, giving a sleek, modern look. Black works especially well with darker roofs and renders.

White – Perfect when you have white timber shutters, blinds, or curtains. White frames blend seamlessly with interiors and brighten coastal homes.

Monument – A strong, dark grey that ties into Colorbond roofs and fences. Great for contrast without going fully black.

Surfmist – A coastal grey-white, softer than pure white but still light and fresh. A favourite for Hamptons-inspired homes.

Ironstone – A deeper neutral that sits beautifully against stone, timber, or modern renders.


From our projects, 99% of frames end up black or white. The remaining 1% are Monument, Surfmist, or Ironstone.

Factors to Consider When Choosing Colours

1. Glass appearance

From the street, glass looks dark. Dark frames (like black) blend in, while light frames (like white or Surfmist) stand out.



2. Roof and guttering

If you have a Colorbond roof in Monument, matching frames creates design cohesion.



3. Interior styling

White shutters? Go white. Dark flooring or cabinetry? Black frames provide balance.



4. Exterior render or cladding

Light render works well with contrast (black or Monument). Dark render often looks sharper with white or Surfmist.



5. Lifestyle feel

Hamptons, coastal, or modern industrial — colour choices play directly into style themes.

Why Spraying Beats Replacement

Choosing the right colour doesn’t mean you need to buy new frames. Spraying allows you to update without replacement:

Factory finish – HVLP spraying delivers smooth, sharp coatings.

Cost-effective – A fraction of replacement costs.

Eco-friendly – Re-uses existing aluminium, reducing landfill.

Flexible – You can choose from far more colour options than most factories provide.

Popular Combinations on the Gold Coast

White shutters + white frames – Seamless, coastal, Hamptons feel.

Dark render + black frames – Sleek, modern, architectural.

Light render + Monument frames – Strong contrast, sophisticated look.

Stone + Ironstone frames – Natural textures paired with deep neutrals.

Surfmist frames + coastal cladding – Perfect for beachside homes.

The Technical Side of Colour Spraying

Durability is as important as colour:

Primers – Norglass All Surface Primer (30–40 microns DFT per coat, 2 coats = 60–80).

Topcoats – Concept Acrylic Lacquer (25–35 microns DFT per coat, total build 40–60).

Spraying system – HVLP equipment delivers smooth, even coats without brush marks.


This ensures your colour choice not only looks right but also lasts in the Gold Coast climate.

Why the Gold Coast Climate Matters

Salt air – Coastal suburbs like Palm Beach, Currumbin, and Tugun demand durable coatings.

UV rays – Open suburbs like Robina, Ormeau, and Upper Coomera need protection from fading.

Humidity – Hinterland suburbs like Mudgeeraba, Bonogin, and Worongary require primers that resist moisture.


Your colour choice is only as good as the system behind it. That’s why preparation, primers, and multiple coats are critical.
