PFB Pool Coating Chlorinated Rubber
Gloss · 1 Gallon
Chlorinated rubber pool paint with strong fade resistance and vivid color retention. Compatible with previously painted chlorinated rubber surfaces and ideal for residential and commercial pools.
PFB Pool Coating Chlorinated Rubber is a high-performance swimming pool paint designed for concrete, plaster, and previously painted chlorinated rubber pool surfaces. It delivers a vivid, fade-resistant finish that holds up to constant chlorine exposure, UV radiation, and the alkaline environment inside swimming pools. This coating is used by pool contractors and maintenance companies on residential and commercial pools across the country. It goes on smooth, cures to a hard film, and makes pool surfaces easier to clean and maintain between seasons.

How long before I can fill the pool after painting?
Wait 5-7 days after the final coat before filling with water. The coating must fully cure to resist chlorine and water immersion. Filling too early will cause the paint to soften and peel.
Can I apply chlorinated rubber over epoxy pool paint?
No. Chlorinated rubber and epoxy pool paints are not compatible. If your pool was previously painted with epoxy, you must continue with epoxy or strip the old coating completely.
How often should I repaint my pool?
With proper preparation and two coats, expect 3-5 years between repaints. Pools with heavy use, aggressive chemical treatment, or hard water may need repainting sooner.
Can this be used on fiberglass pools?
Chlorinated rubber pool paint is designed for concrete and plaster pools. Fiberglass pool resurfacing requires a different product system — contact us for recommendations.
