Step 1: Vacuum the pool surface

Step 2: Mask areas as appropriate

Step 3: Prepare the LUXAPOOL® Epoxy Pool Coating by adding the Part B Hardener to the Part A Base.

Use whole packs of Part A base and Part B hardener.

TIP: Stir 300 times around by hand.

Step 4: Paint the pool.

TIP: Mark out 20 m2 and use up one 3.5 L kit. This will give you an optimum film thickness.

Step 5: Allow a minimum of 20 hours and not more than 24 hours for curing before applying the second coat.

Step 6: Apply a second coat. Do NOT thin the epoxy paint mix with LUXAPOOL Solvent A

Step 7: Allow the pool to dry thoroughly before filling with water.

Allow 7 days in summer and

14 days in winter

Do not add chemicals other than salt or chlorine for at least 3-5 days

To maintain the coating and maximise the wearing life, maintain pool chemistry in accordance with our GENERAL GUIDELINES FOR POOL CARE available on our website. www.luxapool.com.au
