Help - need durable white door paint that will last the distance for 13 new internal doors

[Jennywren8]

Durable white door paint that will last the distance and won’t show up grubby handprints/smudges from the kids. Our current ones look like the pic - grim - and are falling apart. Can anyone recommend what paint I use on either primed or pre-finished doors? Thanks!

First I’d use a magic sponge on those marks, then wash it down with hot soapy water. You’d be amazed how much will come off. We’ve just re-painted all our gloss with dulux quick dry gloss , they look great, it really touch dry in 1 hour and we did 2 coats. Previously they were painted in eggshell which seems to be what decorators use these days but I find the high shine proper gloss paint so much easier to clean. You do still need to wipe them down though every few weeks.

First off I'd try cleaning them
If marks won't come off then you will need to re-paint them.
Lightly sand them, then undercoat then satinwood paint.
Remember to take all the door furniture off first

I always clean my doors with sugar soap and give it a light sand and wipe clean with a cloth before I paint.

I painted my doors with satinwood brilliant white dulux paint, and they still look good even after a year. I find them easy to clean with warm, soapy water.

I always used white gloss from dulux, but I found it turned a yellow colour over time, and it had a very strong smell. I even painted my bannister satinwood brilliant white dulux it still looks great.
