How to Paint a Hot Tub
Painting a hot tub, is that a thing? I did it and I love it! Let me show you how I did and what it’s like a year later! Yes, it’s really easy!
We were working on redoing our entire deck space, and our hot tub stuck out like a sore thumb being dark brown. Its a year later and it has been the best decision ever! Let me show you the process and what you will need!
SUPPLIES:
OUTDOOR WEATHER PROOF PAINT
PAINT BRUSH
HOT TUB
I was in the process of painting my deck, so I didn’t worry about any paint getting on the decking. If you are worried put down a drop cloth.
Make sure that your hot tub is clean from all debris. We pressure washed our hot tub right before.
* MAKE SURE TO CHECK WITH THE MANUFACTURER IF YOU ARE WORRIED ABOUT VOIDING ANY WARRANTY.
Here it is with one coat.
* INSERT – FREAK OUT MOMENT … WHAT DID I DO?
Yes, I didn’t mention to James that I was doing this because, he may have said not to before… but I KNEW how good it would look.
KEEP PAINTING – I promise!
Here we are with the second coat and I calmed down just a bit…it was starting to look better I had hope!
3 COATS IS THE KEY!! LOOK AT THIS BEAUTY!!! I am so happy I kept going! When you are painting yours you will know how many coats to do. I found using the paint brush was better than a roller I did try both.
This space is getting better by the moment! Now it was time for James to get home and see what I did!
This space has needed a lot of work done, but its getting there! Isn’t it amazing what painting the hot tub can do!
Now for the after!! TADA!
I seriously can’t get enough of this space!
I hope you loved seeing how I painted our hot tub and are inspired to do yours! We have had it for a year and not one CHIP! It looks brand new and we get A LOT of use out of it!

Hi Sarah! Nice work on the privacy screen. I’m thinking of doing a similar treat around my hot tub deck. Looking at your tub. I don’t see space for your covet to open and store with the screen there. What method do you use to get in and to store your cover? Thanks !
Thank you!! We just always set it off the side of the deck! Probably not most practical but it was easy for us! They do make different kits to attach to your hotub for easy storage.
Hello
That turned out very nice 👍 But may I ask, was this a wooden conversion? Or a plastic conversion? We have a plastic conversion.
thanks in advance for the answer.

So what did you use to paint it??
Just exterior paint!
