AquaBright Finish
SMOOTH - DURABLE - ENDURING
It took over twenty years, but a new product has now emerged virtually eliminating all of the traditional plaster and paint coating shortcomings pool builders have come to experience. It is resistant to chipping, peeling and chalking, It cures in seconds - not weeks - and it is extremely durable, outlasting conventional finishes.
Introducing AquaBright, a pneumatically-applied high-performance pool finish that captures the strength, durability, and maintenance ease of old school finishes while maintaining the beauty and architectural colour range.
AquaBright is stain and crack resistant and will outlast traditional paint or plaster finishes for years to come. Because Aqua Bright is a non-porous, pH-neutral finish, there is no need for costly hard chemicals at start-up. There is a large colour pallet to choose from that is UV fade-resistant.
AquaBright is environmentally friendly because there is little to no waste and less of an environmental impact. Mining, transportation, and other wastes associated with plaster and paint finishes are now a thing of the past.
AquaBright Benefits:
Colour UniformityCompared to coloured masonry finishes, aquaBRIGHT� has a more uniform colour across the entire swimming pool and as the pool ages, the aquaBRIGHT finish will not "mottle" or fade in larger blotchy clouds.
Why Pay For Trucked Water? If left alone, most curing masonry finishes will dry out and crack if the water is not immediately placed in the pool. Because of this, it is a common practice to truck in water to protect the new finish. Once installed, the aquaBRIGHT finish is cured. You can fill that day, the next day or the following week; thus eliminating the need to pay for water.
What's A Hot Start? Are you looking at a coloured finish? Coloured Masonry finishes typically require a two-week startup process called a "Low alkalinity burn" or a "Hot Start". This is where you or your pool company will pour muriatic acid into your pool to burn the leaching calcium off the curing masonry finish. Being a hard durable plastic surface, aquaBRIGHT does not require any caustic or complicated start-up process. We call our start-up process, "Balance and Swim".
Pick A Colour, Any Colour. Pigments are like commodities, there can be great variations in cost, depending on the colour you choose. Sometimes the difference can be so great it becomes the sole determining factor in choosing the colour scheme for your pool. All standard aquaBRIGHT finishes are one awesome low price, so choose away and pick what you like and not what you can afford.
Test, Add Chemicals And Re-test. When did owning a pool mean that you need a degree in chemistry? Old-timers used to treat their pools with two things chlorine and muriatic acid. Unlike masonry finishes, the non-porous, smooth and PH neutral aquaBRIGHT finish won't counterbalance with your swimming pool's water chemistry. We're not saying with aquaBRIGHT you'll only need chlorine and acid, but due to the nature of plastic, you'll spend much less time balancing your water chemistry and more time enjoying your pool with your family.
Pre-mix To Protect. Many chemicals need to be pre-mixed with water before adding the product to the pool. Usually, this is to protect the finish of the pool to prevent problems like bleaching and etching. Our plastics are chemical resistant and unlike masonry finishes, aquaBRIGHT can be acid washed with very little impact to the surface and the colour.
