How to resurface your pool with Oyster Quartz Diamond Brite

[@DaganMcCann]

Great video, thanks. Does a pool with diamond brite need to be completely chipped down to resurface? We have a couple holes in the deep end corners.

I used to put a gallon of water and a gallon of acid with a little shot of Top Job in a 2-gallon plastic watering can keep the fumes down and the acid will flow nice and even down the walls.

[@TomLeeman]

That’s an excellent tip thanks for watching

What is the deck surface finish on the concrete? Great job on the pool video! Thank you for posting and sharing 🎉

[@TomLeeman]

Repainted it with a special concrete paint on the deck

[@TheThreekeys]

Beautiful pool!

[@TomLeeman]

I think so too!

[@ufixit6806]

Thank you for a great informative video. I have a concrete floor and fiberglass sides on my pool. Will diamond brite work on the fiberglass?

[@TomLeeman]

Yes, absolutely

[@almamia229]

Not a bad price for the size of the pool. Watching this video helped me realize the quotes I received for the resurfacing of my pool is astronomical.

[@TomLeeman]

Glad I could help this job was not the greatest there was a lot of bumps on the bottom of the pool so I don’t know if I’d recommend these guys too thanks for watching

I live in palm beach county, I have received two quotes. One was really low and the other really high.....which honestly both scare me. I just moved here, so I have no idea what to expect.

[@Albury19]

I’m confused is Tom Leeman the owner or foreman or what?

[@luthervaughn1]

@@Albury19 I'd say Tom Leeman is a contractor who subs....and when the job is good, it's "his guys", when the job is bad, he'll never use those guys again. LOL He's just a regular 'ol contractor scumbag. There's a ton of them out there who talk like they know, but has no experience at all.

[@altsworld]

have you got any videos of the coping tiles being cut and installed?

[@altsworld]

or maybe its stamped concrete?

[@TomLeeman]

Yes, I do

[@johncaldwell9842]

Hi. My pool is in pretty good shape, but I have a bit of rust left over from a bad roofing job where they threw their nails directly in the pool. If I drained my pool and then pressure washed it, is it possible to then just paint it with diamond brite?

[@TomLeeman]

That is a pretty good question. I’ve never didn’t counter that and not quite sure how you would handle it but I’m sure there’s a way to fix it.

[@Mai-thedumb1]

the bag of DB says 3/8 to 1/2 inch thick

[@TomLeeman]

Excellent tip if you have any other constructive criticism or ideas about this, let me know in the comments. Thank you.

[@bullhippo9023]

If I did this type of work , it would look terrible. I have watched many videos of this type of repair. I still don't see how you do it.

[@TomLeeman]

You have to get set a crew to do it because it sets up fast these guys were mediocre at best

[@BruiserFL]

What is the purpose of muriatic acid at the end of the process?

[@TomLeeman]

I think it makes a type of chemical bond

[@HoldenMcCash]

The contractor should have the men wearing respirators to protect against acid fumes. It's probably required by OSHA.

[@TheThreekeys]

Does the plaster/finish sparkle?

[@TomLeeman]

This finished was more like a white bottom

[@TheThreekeys]

@@TomLeeman ok! Thx!😊

[@PearlMarjory]

How does the texture of the pool feels?

[@TomLeeman]

I have to say I don’t think these guys did a very good job because the surface is Pompi

[@edwinmartinez2646]

Very nice 💪💪💪

[@TomLeeman]

Thanks and thanks for watching

[@handy1434]

Did they do the deck and coping also ?

[@TomLeeman]

They just of the pool thanks for Watching

[@JohnRose-t1p]

Good job

[@TomLeeman]

Thanks

[@BruiserFL]

Great explanation of this process.

[@TomLeeman]

Thanks

[@rafisoltren]

Hi great video what the price on this project?

[@TomLeeman]

With the tile it was about 7000 thanks for watching

[@christonsparks1901]

this was a good video but this guy obviously does n know much about pool construction

[@TomLeeman]

Yes you’re right I don’t know anything about it but I did watch these guys do it and got some idea and I hope the video was helpful for you and thank you for watching

[@Albury19]

Tom is this your pool?

[@Albury19]

I think it looks gorgeous

[@christonsparks1901]

the commentator need to be quite

[@TomLeeman]

You can say that again

[@rea8755]

There's a volume button on your device, prolly a mute two.

[@tonya.9367]

I thought it was very well narrated.

[@PearlMarjory]

I appreciated the narration.

[@DaganMcCann]

[@TomLeeman]

I think you definitely gotta get all the bubbles out and make sure that it’s clear of that. Good luck on your new pool.
