The refurbishment of this swimming pool was a straightforward painting job, with both the existing interior walls and ceiling of swimming pool area needing a new coating. Even in just a relatively small space, we had to prepare for coating several different substrates.
Prior to undertaking the job, we liaised with a Bradite technical sales representative, coming to the conclusion that we would apply three coats of Bradite One Can to the area. The first coat was thinned with 10% water to give good adhesion, followed by 2 coats of undiluted paint. There was no spraying on this job, so we employed the traditional brush and roller.
The reason ‘One Can’ was chosen for this particular application was because of its fantastic adhesion properties to the multitude of surfaces (metal, plasterboard, PVDF etc) that we tackled on this project. We also wanted a product that was exceptionally fast drying, water based, low odour and had a very durable eggshell finish. We were assured that ‘One Can’ would also tolerate the high humidity levels present in a swimming pool area.
During the process, we made sure that any sensitive areas were masked and sheeted to prevent any paint spillage.
