INSL-X WR101909A-01 Waterborne, Semi-Gloss Pool Paint, 1 Gallon, Aquamarine, 128 Fl Oz

It was in pretty bad shape, as you can see in the photos! According to a quote, I'll pay between $12k and $14k It would cost us $15k to do a new plaster job, which is out of Thus it was painted by me. That's the story about how I painted a pool for the first time. Because we live on the Georgia coast, near sea level, the first thing we did before totally draining our pool was find the point at which it was drained. You should contact the company who installed your indoor filtration system if you live in an area where the water table is high Then ask them where the well point is on your pool, if it is on your pool, and if so, how It was installed. It's a given that any pool company worth its salt will pre-inspection When your pool is being built, the installers will install this well point. As long as the pool was empty, I kept our old pool pump / service pump running 24/7 at the well point. Throughout the day, there was a monotonous trickle of water accompanied by big gusts of ground water every 90 You risk your pool floating like a ship if you don't do this! In addition to rinsing with muriatic acid, TSP, and lots of water after draining and pressure washing, I scrubbed the pool with muriatic acid. These are some of the items I found Plaster that was crumbling or bubbling in sheets and peeling off in sheets as it corroded In order to provide a sound surface, the plaster had to be chipped up and removed. A lot of the plaster on the bottom was removed, and we patched the places where exposed concrete was to be seen with a polymer-based compound It is a thinset that is modified porcelain tile. All the rest was left to its own devices. Having repaired all of the holes in the pool, I swept it and prepared it for painting. We let our swimming pool dry for two days straight in the Georgia sun before painting. According to the paint instructions, the paint should be applied to a dry surface, so we did this. In order to be sure that at least three hours of sun would be available, we checked the forecast The weather has been dry for 7 days. As far as I could tell, the instructions were accurate With every passing day, the paint adhesion got better and better. After applying the first coat, we let it dry for 4 hours. And, despite the instructions to not apply paint in direct sunlight, we did so Despite the high temperatures and heavy sun in Georgia, the paint went on well and dried well. After the second coat was applied, polish was applied The second coat goes on more easily than the first one, by the way It was easy to clean up and then it was time to go. The paint on the pool surface seemed like it would easily chip off as I peeled up the Frog painter's tape from the tile line - so, I slowly pushed it from the tile line. As if it were cheap latex paint The repair was not effective right away, so I convinced myself that the concrete needed a lot of "cure time. " After seven days in the sun, it was not peeling at all! The spot where I thought it would peel was now stuck on like glue that will not come off without a struggle! Furthermore, the 7 days allowed for the paint globs that dripped from the rollers which I would never have noticed or cleaned up if I hadn't allowed for the 7 day grace period. The bottom line is that this paint is excellent and I would definitely buy it again and recommend it. Prepare yourself by ensuring you are aware of the following It will definitely look good if you put in the time and effort to complete it. Using eight of those per 18' x 36' pool (roughly 25k gallons), we filled our 25k gallons pool. To two-inch frames, apply five gallons of ocean blue waterborne paint Cover it with a coat. I would estimate that we spent $2k on all supplies (Pool paint, Tiles, thinset, grout, etc. ). The ISLF translates It bears the WR102309A-G3,X The Waterborne, Semi-Liquid The Ocean Blue Gloss Pool Paint is a gallon-sized product.

I just painted last night, so I am being fair. Rolls designed for rough surfaces and concrete were bought with nappy length of 1/2". Among the preparations we performed were draining the pool, patching a few cracks, spraying a bleach/water mixture onto the surface, and scrubbing with a scrub brush. My first coat of paint was shiny and clean. The paint went on very quickly and easily. A hand painted line runs along the tile line and along the vertical face of each step. My goal was to avoid a slippery stepping surface on the stairs. The other option was to use Using a wet cloth to clean wet paint is effective. As for the rollers, I discarded them, but my other stuff was nicely cleaned up. (I wiped everything clean after I was done). had intended to buy four gallons, but two were perfect for one coat, and the color looks so good, I won't even bother with a second. The directions say to wait 3 days if there will be no rain in the weather forecast. I'm hoping to get 48 hours and they say to wait 7 days before filling the The paint was still drying when I got home The pool will be filled starting Thursday, so I will be able to use it the following A while ago (chlorine pool) I painted the pool, but it faded quickly. A different kind of paint was used there. I will return to edit if anything goes wrong.

It is a very happy day for me that I chose aquamarine. It is likely that you will have outstanding results if you follow instructions exactly. You should read the conditions/instructions a couple of times to understand them, then you should watch the weather and plan your actions. You should avoid direct sunlight, allow enough time before rain, and make sure the painted pool is dry after rain (I used a pool cover pump and shop vac to remove puddles). It took little time for the paint to dry. I thinned the first coat with water according to the It was then painted a second time to fill in all the details. I expected a worse outcome, but it was better than Whenever guidance was needed, support did an excellent job. The 5 gallons I used were enough for my 19500 gallon pool. It is much less than I expected, but there is no gaps in coverage and the walls are completely covered.

It is very easy to apply and looks good. I have always used Insl Last year, I used a brand that wasn't available at my store, so I used one that wasn't available. I made a big The thing I'm most excited about is that it's on Amazon.

Having read and followed all the instructions, I cleaned and prepared the pool before it was painted. Water was then added to the pool after it was painted and had a chance to dry for 7 days. As soon as the paint dried, it began bubbling and changing color at My first thought was that I might have done After I ordered more paint, I went through the entire procedure of pressure washing, then cleaning with muriatic acid, then waiting 4 days for it to dry before painting, and waiting 7 days for it to dry before filling it During the second attempt, I made sure I followed instructions to the letter. After filling the pool to the brim, the same result occurred. In addition, I ordered additional paint just in case, which could not be returned. This rubbish is terrible and I will not buy it or recommend it again. Spend more on rubber paint if you want to make yourself happy.
