Resurfacing Fibreglass Pools in Detail
Fibreglass pools that are over 20 years old will require resurfacing. Different makes of pools will require different amounts and types of repairs prior to resurfacing with a new Fibreglass skin. The types of issue that can appear on an aged Fibreglass pool are:

1. Osmosis

Osmosis is sometimes known as Fibreglass Cancer. It presents as Blisters of varying sizes from +-3mm to the size of a fist. Essentially Osmosis is blisters that contain contaminated water from the outside of the pool (very similar to a blister you would get on your skin) Under these blisters you will find rotted fiberglass. These blisters will eventually crack and show small black/brown marks on the surface. Due to the high mineral content on these cracks algae forms, this is sometimes called black spot. As part of the resurfacing works it is imperative the Blisters be drained, deflated and sealed. Then the cavity that is left should then be filled with a
Vinyl Ester bogg.

2. Cracking

After many years of service the top coat (Cosmetic Colour Coat) breaks down, it will firstly become un-smooth then start to dissolve into a white powder. The Gelcoat will be ground back prior to the application of the Fibreglass resurfacing.

3. Crazing

Crazing is normally found on the surfaces that are exposed to the sun, normally on coping edges. Crazing will be ground back prior to the application of the Fibreglass resurfacing.

4. Flaking

Flaking is where small sections of Fibreglass come away from the rest of the surface. This is rarely found, but does appear on some makes of Fibreglass pools. Flaking will be ground back prior to the application of the Fibreglass resurfacing
