Does Door Panel Painting Require Door Removal?

[LeDominic]

Door panel painting requires door removal. Even for just door panel painting, the door needs to be taken off. The door contains numerous wiring connections, such as power window regulators, electric locks, etc., along with door liners. If the door isn't removed for panel work, these wires could be damaged. Panel work involves applying force to the door, which may cause it to sag. Additionally, the limited space inside the door makes tool access difficult, making removal more conducive to effective panel painting.

Body Repair: Address damages such as dents from impacts or rollovers, bent frames, dimensional shifts through replacement, stretching, welding, etc. Panel Component Repair: Restore all damaged panels to their original appearance and dimensions using adhesives, welding, etc. Panel Component Fine-Tuning: Realign repaired doors, lights, and other panels, as well as displaced mechanical and electrical components.
