White Plaster

Traditional Marcite Pool Plaster

It's important to  know that white plaster is susceptible to  all water conditions  especially from attacks of improperly maintained or  fluctuating chemical conditions.  Therefore, it is only reasonable to  expect that  during the life of the product, it will change in appearance.   These  changes may be subtle or minor, perhaps slight shading or scaling, or  far  more dramatic in the form of pronounced staining, etching,  cracking, or  de-laminating in extreme cases.
 

Traditional Pool Plaster technology before Quartz swimming pool surfaces, pebble surfaces,  and the modified additives for traditional pool plaster, there was only  white plaster. With today’s’ modified surfaces traditional plaster may  not be the most economical choice for today’s swimming pool surface. The  creamy blend of Portland white cement and crushed marble sand  produces a smooth silky look as well as texture. This combination of material produces a surface with an average life span of 9 to 12 years.  I’ve seen some surfaces hold it’s integrity for up to 20 years. As with  all swimming pool surfaces, maintaining proper pool chemistry is  paramount to longevity and family enjoyment. 


Standard white plaster is the tried and true pool and spa surface   finish.  White plaster has been around as long as people have been   building swimming pools and it remains a popular choice in spite of the  myriad  of choices that have come into the market in recent years.  Its  simple combination of white cement, white marble aggregate and water  make for an  economical choice that will give you that classic swimming  pool look.
 

Strengths:  When filled with  water, pools and spas surfaced in white  plaster create a brilliant,  clean, light blue appearance that is very smooth to  the touch.  A  long-time favorite for many customers, it remains the most  affordable  pool finish product on the market today.  Standard white  plaster is a  reliable product when installed by a quality contractor and  properly  maintained.
 

Concerns:  It's important to  know that white plaster is susceptible to  all water conditions  especially from attacks of improperly maintained or  fluctuating  chemical conditions.  Therefore, it is only reasonable to  expect that  during the life of the product, it will change in appearance.   These  changes may be subtle or minor, perhaps slight shading or scaling, or  far  more dramatic in the form of pronounced staining, etching,  cracking, or  de-laminating in extreme cases.
 

There are a great many variables in play when it comes to   determining the exact cause of such changes in appearance and one could  spend a lifetime exploring the complex chemical phenomena at the heart  of these concerns.  For the purpose of selecting standard white  plaster it's  critical to be fully aware that it is a relatively "soft"  finish  compared to other options and one that is more susceptible to  the effects of  water chemistry than some newer innovative products.
