WaterWays (TA) was established in 1998 and has since been intensively involved with all aspects of the swimming pool industry including construction, installation, refurbishment, maintenance and associated product sales/applications.
The WaterWays team has acquired specialist experience specifically with pool refurbishments over the past 10 years and in particular the re-lining of domestic pools with concrete, marbelite, and fibre glass finishing. This invaluable experience, supported by wide consultation across the industry spectrum, allows the WaterWays team to provide you with specialist advice, support and products for the preparation- and the successful application of swimming pool Epoxy Coatings.
The WaterWays team has an established confidence in its methodology and product offering to the extent that it is reflected in the unique WaterWays guarantee which also caters for those Customers who prefer to do the job themselves. DIY can thus be done with a full product guarantee and without any risk of failure - provided the process instructions are followed.
A fairly general and most serious problem pool owners encounter with Epoxy Pool (and other) Paint products on offer is the sustained bonding strength and durability of the epoxy primer and the pool surface substrate (Marbelite, concrete, fibre glass). Due to the nature and purpose of a pool shell it is virtually impossible to ensure that the prepared pool surface is completely moisture (water) free prior to the application of the epoxy paint primer.
Even where the surface appears to be dry a significant amount of residual moisture is retained/seeps into the substrate for various reasons but mainly due to reverse osmoses, compounded by hairline cracks, elevated water tables, leaking pipes etc.
It is therefore imperative that the composition of the epoxy primer be such that it is compatible with an acceptable level of residual moisture in the prepared substrate. It goes without saying that a solvent based primer would tend to be repelled by moisture (water) and thus by using a solvent based primer, permeation into the substrate will be compromised resulting in poor bonding and endless problems over time.
For priming purposes DURAPOX 4CS Epoxy Primer employs a water reducible hardener with a compatible resin to establish an extremely durable bond with the prepared surface (substrate such as concrete, marbelite, or any other hard surface) irrespective of the retained moisture level in the pool shell (within limits of course).
