Give your space a new look or refresh a fading color with specialty paints and finishes from Ace Hardware. Discover different types of specialty paint for your deck, countertop and swimming pool, then learn how to prepare your surface to get the most from your premium finish paint.

Types of Specialty Paint

While indoor and outdoor paints are a great choice for most areas of your home, outdoor climates and damp environments can quickly strip away standard paint types. Our specialty paint options are formulated to last under tough circumstances, so you can keep your deck, countertop and pool looking fresh.

Deck Paint

Whether it's from foot traffic or weather events, the surface of your deck can see a lot of wear and tear. Specialty deck paints are designed to resist fading and cracking, keeping your deck stain looking fresh for longer.

Deck paints come in oil-based and water-based varieties:

  • Oil-based paints offer the best protection against moisture.
  • Water-based paints resist fading well and emit fewer fumes while you're painting.

Both types of deck paint are designed for tough outdoor use that holds up against mold, mildew, UV fading and changing weather.

Swimming Pool Paint

Swimming pool paint helps protect the floor and walls of your in-ground pool by creating a water-retaining seal or barrier and resists fading, fungus and algae growth. Explore specialty paints for bare, marble-ite, plaster and fiberglass pools, or use your premium finish pool paint on fountains and water features to refresh any water space in your yard.  

Countertop Paint

Another surface regularly combating spills, wear and stains is your kitchen countertop. Water-based acrylic paints are good options for painting countertops. They can help you upgrade your kitchen prep surface and give it a transformative look. For example, the right premium paint can make linoleum look like a natural stone surface but with a much lower price tag. Find countertop paints that can be applied over wood, plywood, particleboard and laminate for a quick way to refresh any countertop.

Additional Specialty Paints

In addition to these popular specialty paints, Ace carries even more premium paints to help you tackle any surface or project.

  • Chalkboard premium paint allows you to transform a wall into a child’s dream artistic canvas.
  • Concrete paints help prevent stains when something inevitably spills in your garage.
  • Anti-rust spray paints help surfaces prone to rust last longer.
  • Marine paints allow you to protect your boat from UV exposure and shifting weather conditions at the dock and in open water.
  • Chalk style paint can transform the look of old furniture, kitchen cabinets and more without the need to strip or prime a surface beforehand.

Preparing Your Surface for Specialty Paint

As you undertake different painting projects around your home, you will have to paint on different surfaces, from metal, laminate and wood to concrete, drywall and tile. Regardless of the surface you are painting, here are a few tips to consider to ensure the job is done right.

  • Move furniture, paintings, objects and other items you need to protect out of the way.
  • Lay down the proper protective materials and mask objects like corners and electrical switches to prevent paint from spilling over onto other surfaces.
  • Clean the surface you need painted to remove dust, dirt, old paint and more.
  • If cracks or holes are present, use a quality sealant to ensure your project can progress.
