Brushing is one of the most important—and most overlooked—steps in maintaining a healthy plaster pool. Algae, scale, dirt, and fine debris naturally cling to rough pool surfaces, especially in concrete and gunite pools where porous finishes allow buildup to take hold. The Animal 22" Pool Brush is built specifically for this job, delivering aggressive scrubbing power without flex, chatter, or premature wear.

Designed for professional service use, this brush features a wide 22-inch cleaning path combined with stiff, high-quality bristles that dig into plaster, gunite, and concrete surfaces. The rigid aluminum back keeps consistent pressure across the entire brush face, allowing you to clean faster, more evenly, and with fewer passes.

This is a purpose-built plaster brush—not a soft maintenance brush meant for vinyl or fiberglass.

Why a Dedicated Plaster Brush Matters

Concrete and gunite pools require firmer brushing than vinyl or fiberglass. Using a brush that’s too soft allows algae and scale to remain embedded in the surface, leading to staining, cloudy water, and higher chemical demand.

A proper plaster brush helps:

• Break algae loose so sanitizers can kill it

• Prevent calcium scale from bonding to surfaces

• Improve circulation by removing biofilm

• Extend the life and appearance of plaster finishes

The Animal 22" Pool Brush is designed to apply consistent, controlled pressure—exactly what plaster pools require.

Built for Professional-Grade Performance

The Animal brush line is known for durability, and this 22-inch model is no exception. The heavy-duty aluminum back resists flexing under pressure, ensuring the bristles maintain full contact with the pool surface. This translates to more effective brushing and less fatigue for the user.

Its extra-wide head makes it ideal for large pools, reducing total brushing time while still delivering aggressive cleaning action where it counts.

When to Use the Animal 22" Plaster Pool Brush

• Brushing concrete, plaster, or gunite pool surfaces

• Removing early-stage algae before it spreads

• Scrubbing steps, benches, and walls during weekly service

• After shocking or algae treatments

• During plaster startup or seasonal deep cleaning
