Interior doors do not need to be sealed, primed or painted on the tops & bottoms, an exterior door that opens out---yes---but really there aren't many that open out. Just waste of time & money IMO.
If you are sparaying them, the time it takes to seal the ends of the door Is minimal,and it just is the right way to do it.

Sealing the door will not prevent the warping/bowing that JG is describing - it is the weight of the door itself that causes it to "sag".
As much as door manufactors want you to believe that there is a way to paint your door out of sagging & bowing, that's not possible. Interior doors do not need to be sealed, primed or painted on the tops & bottoms, an exterior door that opens out---yes---but really there aren't many that open out. Just waste of time & money IMO. Great paint job, also really like your 5 panel doors. there is moisture in your home - bathroom/shower, sinks, laundry, cooking, respiration, etc. Your doors need to be sealed becasue of these conditions. Wood entry doors need excessive care - think of it this way - your wood front door is just the same as your wood dining table or chairs and if you put those on the front porch, think of the level of care they would require to be maintained. Nobody does that level of maintenance though on their exterior doors.

Dave! After discussing all the snow and bad weather you have while fishing during winter up there, it sounds like my wife can't wait to get rid of me this fishing season!  i swear I didn't tell her that you'd be rowing  Next trip through for you, you'll have to drop by my house - the man cave continues to evolve in good ways, got a beer second refrigerator all lined up for the garage!!!  It's 98* in Chico right now at 11:57 am - go get back in the pool!

Everything has been sealed, so I'm good. We have MDF mouldings througout the house, except for the bathrooms, clear fir. Damn that stuff is expensive. Yes, I caulked every single seam and joint. (Lots of 12" cock in my hands lately)
