Fiberglass provides a long-lasting solution to surface problems and eliminates the need for acid washing, painting, and re-plastering. These fiberglass linings are not subject to degradation like conventional materials, including vinyl liners. Fiberglass can be applied to steel, aluminum, painted surfaces, and concrete. And using fiberglass eliminates cracks and leaks, algae and staining, rough spaces, discoloration, high chemical usage rebar stains, and plaster problems.
According to Gibson, the use of fiber glass reinforced polymer is modernizing and is gaining a name in the field for its durability, versatility, and long service life. “It can be used virtually anywhere that water containment is required. Fiberglass is inert, waterproof, and corrosion resistant. Furthermore, its nonporous surface inhibits algae penetration and minimizes staining. And, it is relatively immune to the damaging effects of pool water,” affirmed Gibson.
“Years of field experience demonstrate that fiberglass can dramatically limit maintenance, and extend the life of a swimming pool or aquatic facility. Fiberglass provides superior strength, far beyond that of conventional plaster, coatings, or vinyl liners,” concluded Gibson.
