Fibreglass & Resin Products for Pool & Leisure in Namibia

Preparation is the project: drain, repair cracks and blisters structurally (991 resin and mat), grind and acid-etch the entire surface, rinse to neutral, dry completely, acetone-wipe — then Poolcoat in crosswise coats per the schedule. The coating is the visible tenth; the prep underneath decides whether it lasts eight years or one.

Honestly: Pool Blue and the mid-tones flatter longest — pure White shows every mineral shadow of our hard water, and Black runs hot and shows chalking early under extreme UV. Cape Grey and Mid Grey photograph beautifully for lodges and forgive hard-water history. The colour card at the counter shows all six against real light.

By respecting the cause: chase the crack out, laminate with mat and iso resin bridging well past it (the laminate carries movement the filler cannot), fair with talc-filled resin, then coat — and where clay heave drove it, expect the engineer conversation, because chemistry cannot hold what the ground insists on moving.

Winter is the season: pools stand empty without mutiny, and inland winter air is dry perfection for laminating and coating — but cold mornings stall cures, so catalyse for the actual temperature, work midday, and give Poolcoat its full cure before filling. The trade’s calendar quietly runs May–August for exactly these reasons.
