From Cream to Sleek Black: Pool Fence Repaint in Semi-Gloss Lacquer

A

Transforming Outdoor Aluminium Fencing with a Modern Black Finish

Old aluminium pool fencing doesn’t need to be replaced to look brand new. With the right prep and professional spraying, we can completely transform the appearance of your fence—adding street appeal and style without the cost of removal or installation.

This project shows a full repaint of a cream-coloured aluminium pool fence, refinished in a semi-gloss black lacquer. The difference is dramatic, and the process is the same one we use across all aluminium surfaces—designed for a smooth, long-lasting result.

The Process: From Dated to Durable

Every aluminium repaint we complete follows a proven, step-by-step system to ensure long-term durability and a high-end finish:

1. Surface Prep

We begin by thoroughly washing the fence and degreasing the aluminium to remove any contaminants. Then we lightly abrade the surface to help the primer bond correctly.

2. Masking & Protection

Hardscapes like pool tiles, coping, and surrounding structures are carefully masked and protected from overspray. We take the time to tape everything cleanly for sharp lines and a mess-free job.

3. Priming

A professional-grade aluminium etch primer is applied. This creates a strong bond between the bare metal and the topcoat, preventing peeling or flaking over time.

4. Spraying the Semi-Gloss Black

We apply a high-quality semi-gloss black lacquer via airless spray. This ensures an even, smooth coat across every bar and joint in the fencing—no brush strokes or roller texture.

5. Clean Tape Removal

Once dry to the touch, masking tape is carefully removed to reveal clean, sharp lines and a flawless finish.

The Result: A Complete Colour Transformation

The cream-to-black repaint gave this outdoor space a total style upgrade. The semi-gloss black finish adds contrast, frames the pool beautifully, and blends perfectly with modern exteriors. It’s low-maintenance, UV-resistant, and tough enough for years of exposure to the elements.
