Repainting Aluminium Pool Fencing: A Professional Spray Finish That Lasts

Restore your aluminium pool fencing with our expert spray painting process. We clean, prime, and spray two coats of premium finish—perfect for giving your fence a fresh, modern look.

Bring New Life to Aluminium Pool Fencing with Professional Repainting

Aluminium pool fencing is durable, practical, and essential for safety—but over time, exposure to the elements can leave it looking faded, chalky, or outdated. If your fence is structurally sound but visually tired, a full replacement might not be necessary.

At RepaintPro, we specialise in professionally repainting aluminium surfaces, including pool fencing. Using the same high-quality, multi-step spray painting system we use for aluminium windows, we can completely transform the look of your outdoor area. Whether you’re refreshing the original colour or switching to something more modern, our process delivers a factory-quality finish that’s built to last in harsh Queensland conditions.

Why Repainting Aluminium Pool Fencing Is a Smart Choice

Your pool area is one of the most visible—and valuable—features of your home. A tired or discoloured fence can drag down the look of the entire outdoor space. Fortunately, aluminium fencing is one of the best candidates for repainting. Here’s why:

Cost-Effective: Repainting is significantly cheaper than full replacement. Customisable: Choose a modern colour to update the look of your home. Eco-Friendly: Avoid sending usable metal fencing to landfill. Fast Turnaround: No need for removal or new installation. Durable Result: Our professional system bonds strongly to aluminium and resists flaking, peeling, or UV damage.

If your fencing is structurally sound but showing cosmetic wear, repainting can deliver a like-new result at a fraction of the cost of a replacement.

Our Proven Repainting System: Clean, Prime, and Spray

We use the exact same process on aluminium pool fencing as we do on windows and doors. This method is tried and tested, with long-term results across thousands of projects from South Brisbane to the Gold Coast and Northern NSW.

Step 1: Thorough Cleaning and Surface Preparation

Every successful paint job starts with good preparation. We begin by:

Washing the fence with a pressure cleaner and degreaser to remove dirt, oils, and salt deposits Lightly sanding or scuffing glossy surfaces to help the primer bond properly Checking for signs of corrosion, loose fasteners, or damage

No paint system will last if applied to a dirty or glossy surface. Our prep ensures a clean, slightly roughened surface that’s perfect for adhesion.

Step 2: Masking Surrounding Areas

We take care to protect the surrounding pool area. That includes:

Taping and masking any nearby paving, coping, plants, or walls Covering fixtures like pool filter boxes or lighting Ensuring overspray is completely controlled

You’ll be left with sharp, clean edges and no mess left behind.

Step 3: Priming with Aluminium Etch Primer

Aluminium needs a special primer to ensure proper adhesion and prevent peeling over time. We apply a thin, even coat of etch primer, designed specifically for aluminium fencing. This:

Creates a chemical bond with the metal Helps the finish coat grip more effectively Seals out moisture and contaminants

Without this step, paint will eventually peel, bubble, or flake. It’s non-negotiable for professional results.

Step 4: Spraying Two Coats of Finish Paint

Once the primer is dry, we apply two coats of premium exterior-grade acrylic paint, using a high-quality airless sprayer. This technique gives you:

An even, streak-free finish Full coverage around every bar, joint, and post No brush strokes, drips, or roller texture

Depending on the look you’re after, we offer low sheen for a subtle, soft finish or semi-gloss for a slightly more durable shine.

The final result looks like a brand-new factory-coated fence—clean, modern, and built to withstand years of sun, rain, and salt air.

Transform Your Outdoor Area with a Modern Colour Scheme

Repainting is the perfect opportunity to update your pool fencing to suit your home’s exterior. Many older fences were originally painted in cream or white, which can show dirt and fade over time. Popular modern repaint colours include:

Black or Charcoal: For a strong contrast against light paving or pool tiles Monument or Basalt: To blend with dark window frames or roofing Surfmist or Classic White: For a clean, coastal feel Custom Colours: We can colour-match to your home’s palette

We use premium paints from leading brands such as Haymes, Dulux, and Resene, ensuring a professional finish that won’t fade prematurely in harsh sun.
