Can the pool be shocked with chlorine immediately after refilling? If the paint chip doesn’t melt, then it’s an epoxy paint, then use Pool Guard EHB. Take a paint chip and dip it in a strong solvent (Xylene), and if it dissolves, it’s a chlorinated rubber paint, then use Pool Shield CRX to overcoat it. How do I determine what type of paint is currently on my pool or spa?
Only if you sand properly, as steel is a tough surface for adhesion for pool paints, then apply Pool Guard EHB. Can I apply National products to a stainless steel or metal surfaced pool?
If window is missed then sanding and/ or a Muriatic acid wash must be done to “open” up the paint film for recoating. You can recoat a pool up to 72 hours without sanding. How long can I recoat the pool with no sanding requirements for your Pool Guard EHB? If you want to switch, you must use an epoxy primer first. Can I apply epoxy paint over chlorinated rubber paint or chlorinated rubber paint over epoxy paint?Īqua Kote can be applied over anything, Pool Shield CRX over any chlorinated rubber paint, Pool Guard EHB over any epoxy paint. You cannot apply Pool Guard EHB over Pool Shield or Aqua Kote unless you put a primer on before. Can you apply Pool Guard EHB over Pool Shield or Aqua Kote? If window is missed then sanding and/or a Muriatic acid wash must be done to “open” up the paint film for recoating. Can I apply any pool paint over another type of pool paint?Īqua Kote can be applied over anything, Pool Shield CRX over any chlorinated rubber paint, Pool Guard EHB over any epoxy paint.

Can I apply epoxy paint over chlorinated rubber paint or chlorinated rubber paint over epoxy paint?ĭifferent technologies are not compatible, so we recommend chlorinated rubber over chlorinated rubber, epoxy over epoxy. We recommend that you tape clear plastic on the vertical wall and if no condensation shows, then the pool is dry & ready for overcoating. How can I be sure the pool surface is dry prior to painting with a solvent base paint? If it’s a bigger job then use a caulking agent Polyurethane Sealant, & if it’s a larger repair, a concrete repair is needed. If it’s a hairline crack, Pool Guard EHB will fill it in. How do I repair my surface before painting? Before applying the paint, the pool must be completely dry. All surfaces should then be acid etched with a 15-20% solution of Muriatic Acid to achieve a medium grade sandpaper finish on bare or plaster and to remove mineral deposits on previously painted chlorinated rubber surfaces. Scrub the entire pool with a TSP (Tri-Sodium Phosphate) solution to remove all dirt, oils, loose or peeling paint, and chalk. Previously painted surfaces should be Power Washed to remove loose paint or excessive chalking. Failure to do so will lead to eventually blistering and/or peeling. Surface must always be clean, dry and properly prepared prior to painting. What is the proper surface preparation for the pool? If it’s a bigger job then use a caulking agent Polyurethane Sealant & if it’s a larger repair, a concrete repair is needed.
