The Best Climbing Wall Paint | Designed by Climbers, Made by Paint Experts
New for 2025, water based, ready mixed paint cuts out messy sand mixing and harsh fumes, letting you coat walls with the windows closed. We’ve done all the research so you don’t have to, this UK exclusive formula is the first of its kind and delivers professional results in a single step.
Highlights – what this paint does for you
- Grip you can trust – fine mineral texture means fewer foot slips and more confident moves.
- Paint today, climb tomorrow – touch dry in about 90 minutes; re coat after six hours.
- Built to last – shrugs off chalk, shoe rubber and dynos so the wall looks fresh for years.
- Indoor & outdoor freedom – bonds to plywood, concrete, GRP and timber.
- Colour-code every route – choose from eight bold stock shades (Blue, Red, Green, Black, Grey, White, Light Grey, Yellow).
- Less faff, lower cost – ready mixed texture saves buying separate grip additives; 8–10 m² per litre coverage keeps tins to a minimum.
- Designed by climbers, perfected by paint experts – Rock City route setters teamed up with Coo-Var’s 120-year coatings heritage to solve real-world climbing problems.

Introduction
A climbing wall should boost your training, not your maintenance schedule. Coo-Var × Rock City Climbing Wall Paint was created by people who live on the wall. The result? A ready mixed, anti slip coating that turns raw ply or concrete into a show piece surface that feels like it belongs in a world class gym. Paint once, climb with confidence, and reveal a wall your friends can’t wait to session.

Feature breakdown
1. Confidence boosting grip
An integrated mineral aggregate leaves a micro rough finish that mimics real rock texture, giving shoes and chalked hands consistent bite without shredding skin.
2. Time saving application
No catalyst, no separate texture bag. Stir, roll on with a short pile roller and move to the next panel. Touch dry in roughly an hour and a half; coat two and three go on the same day, ideal for weekend builds.
3. All weather defence
A flexible, water based polymer seals timber and concrete against moisture and UV, stopping splinters outdoors while keeping indoor walls easy to wipe down.
4. Colour that works for setters
Eight stock colours provide instant route setting logic, create vibrant circuits or subtle lines without taping holds.
5. Low odour, low fuss
Water clean up and low VOC content keep the garage, gym or school hall usable faster and without solvent smells.
