We spray the pool with the highest quality marine grade gelcoat with specific enhancers we have found to allow the gel coat to reach it’s hardest potential. We then wipe the pool with acetone to remove any impurities that may have landed on the pool surface. Everything is washed down, vacuumed and allowed to dry overnight. The surface is sanded uniformity and without missing any areas by a technician who is now comfortable and able to properly do his job. The rest is washed into the pool as we wash down the entire area with a pressure washer. 95-98% of the sanded gel coat and the crushed glass end up in the bottom of the pool where it is easily cleaned up. The water creates a mist to collect the dust and cause it to fall to the ground and to cool and clean the surface as it is sanded. It is then sprayed on the surface to be prepared with a very high pressure. Crushed glass is mixed with water in a pressurized pot. We made a large investment into a better process that has proved to be the only “correct” method to surface prep the pool. The deck, screen, plants, and furniture are left with a thick film of gel coat dust that is almost impossible to remove. We found that when a pool was prepared with traditional sanding methods the worker was made uncomfortable and the thoroughness of their sanding was affected often creating a situation where areas of the pool are missed entirely, over sanded or under sanded. Surface prep is a critical and probably the most important step.
This is where most other companies’ problems begin. If the pool has been previously coated, we may have to remove the coating to ensure we get a chemical bond between our new finish and the original pool substrate. It minimizes damage to the pool shell and allows us to sand every contour and angle of the pool. This is the cleanest and most effective method to adequately sand a pool. The next step is we vapor blast your pool with crushed glass to prepare a profile for the new finish.
