For decades swimming pools were coated in a silky brilliant white rubber-based paint finish. Besides the smooth texture and bright white look, this type of paint was known for durability against stains and imperfections. During the late 1980's, government regulations banned some of the most crucial ingredients for making this product maintenance free. New paints were no longer free from imperfections. Blistering, chipping, peeling and fading began to appear in as little as six months. This forced swimming pool builders in this region to switch to plaster finishes. Plaster has its own issues, in the form of a long and complicated start up process, staining, shrinking and cracking just to name a few.

 | Easy Chemical Start-Up | | | Read More... |
A familiar problem with the curing of cement-based finishes is "Calcium Leaching." This requires the use of harsh chemicals. What ever start-up procedure you choose, caustic chemicals are required. You do not need to use the traditional start-up chemicals with AquaBright™. It’s simply "Balance and Swim"

 | Will Not Mottle | | | Read More... |
Mottling is inherent with all plaster. Those annoying cloudy discolorations seem to appear from nowhere. With ecoFinish pool finishes, mottling is a thing of the past.

 | Spider Crack Resistant | | | Read More... |
Those annoying little cracks that appear after plastering, won't be a problem anymore. If renovating, our pool finishes fill in and smooth over existing spider cracks. When applied to a new pool, the composition of our AquaBright pool finish makes it spider crack resistant.

 | Reduces Chemical Consumption | | | Read More... |
Typical pool surfaces are pourous, and absorb chemicals like a sponge. This means that some of your expensive chemicals will end up wasted, increasing the over all chemical requirements of your pool. AquaBright is non-pourous, so the chemicals you put in your pool are left to do their jobs, saving you money over time.

When it comes to the earth, AquaBright follows the three Rs of sustainability:
- Reduce: AquaBright finishes require less materials. Instead of using 2000 lbs of materials like a typical pool, AquaBright pools only require 50 lbs.
- Reuse: Any AquaBright material left over from a job can be reused, instead of thrown away.
- Recycle: AquaBright is made from high quality recycled plastics, to maintain consistency and appearance.

As a plastic finish, AquaBright is resistant to acid and other chemicals. This means that in the off chance an AquaBright pool does develop a stain, a simple acid wash will remove it without damaging the finish.

 | Stain Resistant | | | Read More... |
AquaBright is also extremely stain resistant. Pool stains are not only unsightly, but they require harsh and expensive chemicals to remove them. Organic stains from leaves and debris, or metallic stains from rusted bolts, have trouble bonding to non-pourous AquaBright surface.

 | Repairable | | | Read More... |
Although AquaBright is one of the most durable pool finishes available, sometimes accidents occur. If you find a way to damage an AquaBright finish, it is repairable with almost no trace.
-
 | Scale Resistant | | | Read More... |
Because plaster finishes leach high amounts of calcium and/or silicate, the problem of crystallized deposits becoming visible on pool surfaces, is all too familiar. With AquaBright pool finish, hardwater scale will never become an issue again, because there is No Calcium contained in any of our finishes.

 | Fade Resistant | | | Read More... |
With colored cement-based finishes, fading can occur due to chemical bleaching and scale. EcoFinishTM pool finishes are chmical resistant and formulated with UV inhibitors which make them virtually fade-free.
|
Note: Because Aqua Bright is applied thermally, variations in heat can cause slight variations of color over the entire pool. Slight color varations are common on all pool finishes, including plaster. The appearance of this subtle color variation is drastically minimized when the pool is filled.
