Hi guys
I've got an internal door frame which is the type without a rabbet joint, in other words the slamming strips will be nailed to the frame, does anyone have any idea how much clearance should be allowed between these strips and the door stiles and top rail to allow for painting.
Obviously one could say it depends how many coats of paint are going on so I'm going to say from bare wood 3 coats.
They say you can find out how to make a bomb on the internet, so why can't I find something as simple as how much clearance should be left for painting, as I don't want to listen to a sticking sound every time the door is opened.
Thanks for any advice
Clive
