Tips on how to acid wash a pool 2019

[@joeperry4754]

If you use white n brite from bio-dex it thickens the solution and allows it to cling to the walls longer. I use it on all mine as well as the stain off it helps pull out some of the metals. Haven't used a pressure washer first but I will give it a try on the next one. Thanks for the tips.

[@PoolRescuers]

Joe Perry you bet. I’ve heard about doing it with the bio dex but I haven’t used it or seen it been done. It works well huh?

[@joeperry4754]

Yeah it works for me I've also noticed it helps keeps the fumes down. I want to start tile blasting soon any recommendations on blast media and what kind of compressor? Thanks, Joe@@PoolRescuers

[@PoolRescuers]

Joe Perry I have a video coming out next week on how to set up a tile rig. I’ll answer your questions in it

[@joeperry4754]

Right on thanks man@@PoolRescuers

Joe Perry you got it man. Keep in touch

More of a advertisement for himself, than an instructural video for the DIY.

Any tips on how to properly roll up a vacuum hose for a fellow pool tech? Stupid question but I'm completely "green" or new to the industry

[@four20smp]

Homeowner should have gone with a quartz plaster. That stuff can be buffed out and last 2-3 times longer than your “marble” plaster.

i need that spray gun

I’m curious to know about the process for safely draining the pool first. Specifically, do I have to pop the drain plugs from the floor or can I leave them in? Worried about the hydrostatic pressure...but...how do I know if that’s really a risk factor for my pool? Thank you!

[@PoolRescuers]

Gary Fritter that’s all great questions. What type of pool do you have? Sounds like maybe fiber glass?

[@zaneh6224]

At what point do you decide it needs an acid wash vs a chlorine wash, the only issue I with what they were doing was they has no eye protection on, dealing with concentrations and quantities of Acid like that is sooooo dangerous even if a small splash gets in your eyes.

[@PoolRescuers]

You are 100% correct. This was a run and gun and we ill make sure to promote that moving forward

@@PoolRescuers Are you going to some on site videos, to show what you come across and how you go about fixing it ?, hope so but be prepared for those couch potato know it all's to say how you did everything wrong 🤣🤣👍👍😁😁

[@leo8505]

This is a very good question that still was not answered.

[@timothydbaker9950]

Muratic acid in a pool acid wash is done to remove streaking stains and etching in the surface however if done wrong acid can cause streaking stains and etching Go figure

[@tobs9676]

Hey mate. Can I use hydrochlorice acid instead of muratic acid?

[@timothydbaker9950]

@@tobs9676 absolutely!! Muratic acid is diluted hydrochloric. Just if your gonna use a more stronger hydrochloric concentration make sure it is diluted and that it is not left on too long without rinsing. And if your surface is older than 6 or 7 years. I would recommended just resurfacing

[@tobs9676]

The surface is older then 10 years but still in reasonable good condition. Would you recommend a lower dosage or not treating at all?

[@timothydbaker9950]

@@tobs9676 is it a basic plastic surface or is there an aggregate?

[@timothydbaker9950]

Basic plaster surface not plastic. Haha

[@vhehn]

no eye protection pouring acid

[@PoolRescuers]

freethinker52 yeah should have had that on

[@matthewgonzalez2360]

Seen a lot of other informative videos in the past. This is a whole lot of nothing.

Failure at basic safety with no goggles.

[@leanakile9052]

No soda ash just let the the acid eat away at the pool. No glasses. Hopefully you learn what not to do with these clowns. Lol!

[@PoolRescuers]

Leanaki Le id love to see your instruction video on how to acid wash a pool.... thanks for watching

[@MucaroBoricua]

Good video. But the bromance slow-mo's and the extra talking takes a lot from the teachable opportunity.

[@JesusGomez-uv4ui]

Waste of time😢

[@jeffj2495]

Get rid of THE BLARING MUSIC. It detracts greatly from your video. Otherwise good info here.

[@luannfeld3983]

I wish you had explained what kind of acid you're using and where to buy it. It's not listed above in the supply list.

[@PoolRescuers]

Luann Feld muratic acid. You can find it at Home Depot Lowe’s Walmart. The good stuff is at your local pool store.

[@bleedinblue5675]

Young Latino 13 thanks bro. Just keep skimming

[@dawnlee1155]

Loved the music and also Love to see you guys are wearing protective equipment I watch so many videos that people do not wear any of that stuff which is crazy because you’re working with acid !! (hello)

[@PoolRescuers]

Dawn Lee yeah no kidding! Thank you. Glad you appreciate that.

[@stephaneroy9802]

In Canada Toronto Ontario we use dish soap to help neutralize the fumes Metal up Buttercup.

[@jorge1106able]

Great video..... Quick question, did he cancel the acid once it made it way to the deep end of pool? Or did he just discard it ?

[@PoolRescuers]

Jorge Melendez it’s a good idea to throw soda ash in deep end to neutralize it
