Unlike garage floor paint where there are many dedicated paints to choose from, there are only a few paints that have been specifically designed for garage doors. Therefore, many of our recommendations are universal paints that are suitable for wood, metal and many other surfaces but this may be beneficial if you wish to match other exterior surfaces to the door.
