How to Prepare Your Home for Aluminium Window Spraying Gold Coast

Why Preparation Matters

Aluminium window spraying is one of the fastest and most effective ways to modernise a Gold Coast home. But the success of the project isn’t only about sanding, primers, and topcoats — it’s also about how well the home is prepared before spraying begins.

Good preparation means:

A smoother spraying process.

Fewer disruptions for homeowners.

A cleaner, sharper final finish.

Longer-lasting results.


At RepaintPro, we provide clear guidance for every client so the home is ready before we arrive.

What You Need to Do Before We Arrive

We handle all the technical spraying — but there are a few steps homeowners can take to make the process easier and faster.

1. Clear Access Around Windows

Move furniture away from window areas inside the home.

Trim bushes, plants, or vines that block access outside.

Ensure ladders or scaffolding can be placed safely if required.


2. Remove Curtains, Blinds, and Shutters

Interior soft furnishings can catch overspray.

Plantation shutters or roller blinds should be removed if possible.

If you need help, let us know — we can assist with removal on site.


3. Consider Pets and Kids

Spraying involves protective gear and chemicals.

Pets should be kept outside or away from work zones.

Kids should avoid sprayed areas until coatings dry.


4. Unlock Side Gates and Doors

We often need access around the whole home.

Ensure gates, garages, or side entries are open on the day.

What We Handle

Once the home is ready, we take care of the rest:

Cleaning and sanding frames.

Masking glass, render, tiles, and decks.

Priming and spraying with HVLP systems.

Removing tape for sharp, factory-quality lines.

Reinstalling flyscreens and servicing sliding doors if required.


You don’t need to worry about the technical side — just access and preparation.

Why Sharp Masking Needs Space

A key part of our process is razor-sharp masking. To do it properly, we need clear, unobstructed space around frames:

Inside: space to tape edges, cover flooring, and spray clean lines.

Outside: room for drop sheets, tape, and spraying equipment.


The more access we have, the better the final finish will be.

What Not to Worry About

Glass cleaning – We protect it during spraying.

Small paint flakes – These are covered during preparation.

Existing powder coat – We sand and prime over it.

Exact weather – We monitor conditions to ensure ideal spraying windows.

The Technical Side of Preparation

Even before spraying begins, our system is designed to ensure long-term results:

Sanding – Keys the aluminium and removes chalking.

Priming –

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


Spraying –

Concept Acrylic Lacquer at 25–35 microns DFT per coat, total system build 40–60.


Multiple coats – Depth and durability built into every job.

Benefits of Preparing Your Home Properly

Faster completion – No delays moving furniture or blinds on the day.

Cleaner results – No obstructions mean sharper masking.

Peace of mind – Pets and kids kept safe during spraying.

Less disruption – We can move efficiently around the property.
