bradleyheathhays Posted May 7, 2023 Report Share Posted May 7, 2023 My back door step could use some sprucing up but I'm not sure how to go about it. I would imagine the wood pictured is treated and the metal is aluminum. How would I go about resurfacing or finishing both these surfaces to get them to look some better? The painted white part on the left is actually a different surface a couple inches below the unpainted wood step. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tpt life Posted May 7, 2023 Report Share Posted May 7, 2023 If that were pressure treated and older than about ten years, the aluminum would be severely pitted. You need a layer between aluminum and treated wood. Aluminum polishes nicely, and I’d put a knot-free, finish grade trim over that framing lumber. EDIT: Wait, is the knotty board the casing?

Tom King Posted May 7, 2023 Report Share Posted May 7, 2023 A picture taken from back off of it some with a larger view of what we're looking at would help. I'm not sure if it's a door threshold, or a storm door jamb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
