Make it a-door-able!
Do you recommend that doors be painted vertically (on hinges) or horizontally (on sawhorses)?
In a perfect world, doors should be painted horizontally and dried vertically. A freshly-painted door which is allowed to dry in a horizontal position will frequently serve as a magnet to airborne dust. This dust, as well as other imperfections, can be eliminated by lightly sanding between coats. After application of the final coat, doors which have been painted in a horizontal position should immediately be moved into a vertical position against a wall, with the wet side at a slight downward angle.
On simple door re-coat projects involving one or two coats, it is normally best to paint doors in place, on their hinges.
