I have had excellent results painting my shower tile with Zinnser Bullseye 123 latex primer. It has stuck to the shiny tiles for years now. I don't know what your stall is made of but I would expect you could paint just about anything if you can paint tile. I would suggest a few coats of the primer which would adhere to the substrate and then a couple coats with a color coat of a gloss finish latex. Make sure the surface is completely dry and squeaky clean.

Tips For Updating Bathroom Shower Stalls?

Remodeling your bathroom doesn't have to cost a fortune. There are low-cost alternatives available to give your bathroom a fresh new look. One of the problem areas of the bathroom is the shower stall. Bathroom shower stalls that are discolored and moldy can be improved by installing shower liners. These liners slip over the existing shower area and are a low-cost alternative to prefabricated showers. Search online for a low-cost shower liner at discount home stores. Another good idea to improve the look of your shower stall is to consider painting it. You only need sandpaper, primer and a paint sprayer to make your shower look like new again. This method will save you the most money when remodeling your bathroom. Buy a good shower cleaner and 320 grit sandpaper at the hardware store. You also need to sponges, primer and a good epoxy-based paint. Sand the shower stall and finish with a deep cleaning of the entire bath area. Rinse the stall with clean water until you have removed all traces of residue. Let the shower stall dry for at least 24 hours. The next step is to use a paint sprayer to apply a primer to the shower stall. If you don't have a paint sprayer, then you can rent one at your local home improvement store. If you decide to purchase a new sprayer, then shop around and compare prices to get the best deal. Lightly coat the shower stall with the primer. Let the primer dry at least one day or according to manufacturer's suggestion. Choose an epoxy-based paint that will coordinate with the rest of the bathroom. Spray the paint lightly and evenly across the shower stall. Let dry for at least another 24 hours. Your shower stall will look like new again. Applying a new coat of paint to your bathroom walls and cabinets is a quick way to update the entire room. Remove the hardware from the cabinets or apply painters tape. Make sure the cabinets are empty before you start painting. Use a good paint brush for the best results. Painting your bathroom can be completed in just one weekend.

cleaning my shower stall?

There are many products you'll find to clean your shower stall at the grocery store. Once you have it all removed, a great mold preventative is to spray some vinegar water in your shower stall after each use.
