Staff'n'Toller Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Sorry if this has been done.. Has anyone painted their own pvc, what did you use? Did you need to prepare the surface first or did you just spray paint directly? Cheers, Mel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just used coloured electrical tape. x 2 Our club uses tape on the jump bars and on each end of weave poles and the broad jump uprights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulesP Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 I would use tape too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff'n'Toller Posted August 18, 2010 Author Share Posted August 18, 2010 I have used tape as well, but my poles spend a lot of time out in the elements. I have read that particularly when teaching 2x2 often the dogs hair gets pulled by the tape - and I do have Toller hair in the tape on my poles. I want something more permanent.

Why do you want to paint weave poles - all our competition ones are white? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scouty Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 If your painting pvc, you need a paint thats a least 80% acrylic. I have used wattyl solagard low sheen on plastic for outside stuff with good results. scout Oh no prep just make sure its clean and dry before starting, otherwise you will get crap all over your applicator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OSoSwift Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Hubby painted mine, did everything right and it still scratched off very easily. I have since used coloured cloth tape to go over it. I don't paint weavers they are plain white. I am not sure I have seen painted weavers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
