Colonial & French-Style Aluminium Window Repainting | Gold Coast

Why Colonial & French-Style Windows Need Specialist Repainting

Colonial or French-style aluminium windows are instantly recognisable — multiple thin bars across each pane, dividing glass into grids. They can look charming, but when frames fade into outdated cream or bronze, they clash badly with modern homes. Repainting them is possible, but not every painter has the patience or masking skills to do it right.

At RepaintPro, we’ve built a reputation across the Gold Coast for meticulous masking and razor-sharp spraying. Our system ensures bars, reveals, and surrounding glass are painted cleanly, leaving a finish that looks like it came from the factory.

Our Colonial Window Repainting Process

1. Inspection & Planning – Checking frame condition, bar profiles, and site access.


2. Cleaning & Degreasing – Wax and grease remover lifts silicone and oils.


3. Mechanical Sanding – Breaking down old powder coat for adhesion.


4. Masking Around Bars (Not Over Them) – Precision tape and film applied to each section, avoiding the common mistake of bridging tape across grids.


5. Priming – Single-pack all-surface primers for homes; 2-pack epoxy primers for commercial French windows.


6. Spraying Topcoats – HVLP equipment applies multiple thin coats (25–35 microns each), building a durable finish.


7. Tape Removal & Detailing – Pulled back at the perfect moment for crisp, sharp lines with no bleed.
