18" Stinger Plaster Pool Brush – 50% Grit & 50% Poly Bristles for Plaster & Concrete
Built for Powerful, Everyday Plaster Pool Cleaning
When it comes to scrubbing plaster and concrete pool surfaces, the 18" Stinger Plaster Pool Brush delivers the perfect combination of strength, flexibility, and coverage. Engineered with a unique 50% grit and 50% poly bristle blend, this heavy-duty brush is designed to cut through stubborn buildup while remaining gentle enough to protect your plaster finish.
Whether you’re brushing freshly resurfaced plaster or maintaining an older concrete pool, the Stinger Plaster Brush provides professional-grade performance with every stroke—helping you keep your pool surface clean, smooth, and free of algae.
Dual-Blend Bristles for Optimal Cleaning Efficiency
The secret to this brush’s performance lies in its dual-material bristle construction:
-
Grit bristles deliver aggressive scrubbing power that breaks up tough algae, calcium, and scale buildup.
-
Polypropylene bristles offer softer flexibility to glide smoothly over plaster without etching or wearing down the surface.
Together, this 50/50 blend creates the perfect balance—strong enough for deep cleaning, yet safe enough for daily brushing on plaster or concrete pool finishes.
18-Inch Wide Head for Maximum Coverage
The 18-inch brush head lets you clean large pool surfaces quickly and efficiently. Its wide body covers more area with every pass, saving time on routine maintenance while ensuring thorough cleaning along walls, steps, and floors.
Perfectly balanced for smooth handling, it maintains even contact with the pool surface—reducing strain and making brushing easier on your shoulders and wrists.
Heavy-Duty Backplate and Reinforced Frame
The Stinger 18" Plaster Brush features a sturdy, corrosion-resistant aluminum backplate that holds its shape under pressure. It won’t flex or crack like plastic brushes, ensuring consistent bristle contact from end to end.
Reinforced end caps protect against wear during wall-to-floor transitions, while the ergonomic design provides superior control, even in deep or hard-to-reach areas.
Universal Fit for Standard Telescopic Poles
The brush includes a standard 1.25-inch attachment fitting, making it compatible with all standard pool poles. Simply snap it into your existing telescopic pole and start brushing—it’s that easy.
This universal fit makes it a perfect upgrade or replacement for any standard pool brush, with professional-grade durability that lasts season after season.

The Stinger 18" Plaster Brush is specifically designed for use on:
-
White and colored plaster finishes
-
Gunite and concrete pools

The combination of grit and poly bristles ensures thorough cleaning without damaging or dulling your pool’s surface texture.
Built for Daily Use and Long-Term Durability

Why Use a Grit/Poly Brush for Plaster Pools
Plaster and gunite surfaces require tougher bristles to remove algae and buildup embedded in the textured finish. However, all-grit brushes can be too abrasive for daily use.
The Stinger 18" Grit/Poly Blend Brush strikes the ideal balance—giving you the scrubbing strength needed to prevent algae growth without wearing down your surface prematurely. It’s the go-to brush for both weekly maintenance and post-shock treatments.
How to Get the Best Results
-
Attach the brush to a standard telescopic pool pole.
-
Brush walls and floor thoroughly at least 2–3 times per week.
-
Focus on high-risk areas, including steps, corners, and behind ladders.
-
Rinse the brush after use to remove chlorine and debris.
-
Store it in a shaded, dry area to extend its lifespan.
For newly plastered pools, frequent brushing during the first 30 days helps cure the surface evenly and prevents scaling—making this brush essential during startup.
