G'day All!

Hoping to get some advice! I recently bought some climbing holds for a home wall. I'm not massively happy with the colours: swirled pink and blue. Can anyone advise for or against painting holds a different colour and how best to go about it without losing too much of the rocky texture, and the colour being durable?

TIA!!!

Sadly if theyre resin holds there's not much you can do! You could try rockcity wall paint but it's super grippy so could ruin the holds. 

Just embrace their jazzy colour!!

Sharpies will do a surprisingly long lasting job of adding black spots when you are just one hold short to complete a route.

I'm up for the jazzy colours but my wife isn't so sure... It's for a shared home office space that I've managed to blag one corner of for some climbing holds

I may try and spray paint one of them to see how it turns out, unless that is ill advised based on anyone's previous experience??
