Get those tough pool stains off your pool walls with an Acid Wash

During an Acid Wash we drain the entire pool using a small QUIET electric pump which the customer will never even know is there.  The pump has an auto shut off so the customer doesn't have to be home, doesn't have to do anything.  We set up the pump, normally in the afternoon, let it run overnight then come back the next morning to work.

An acid wash is a popular choice for cleaning tough stains off plaster & pebble surfaces.  An Acid wash uses  muriatic acid, water, and a thickening additive. Combining the proper mixture of these components is one reason an acid wash should only be done by experienced pool professionals.  The acid can literally "etch" or eat away a small layer of the pools plaster, revealing the fresh and white layer underneath.  This type of cleaning is intense and better suited for removing tougher stains in the plaster.  However, due to the nature of an acid wash, this type of cleaning should NOT be performed on a regular basis.  A yearly acid wash, for example, would shorten the normal life span of a plaster pool as layer after small layer would be removed each year.  However, the occasional use of an acid wash is a great tool for restoring a "clean look" to a dirty surface. 

An acid wash is not a cure all.  The best results from an acid wash is when the plaster is still in decent shape.  An acid wash is normally not possible, nor will it help, when the plaster in very old and thin. Although an acid wash works well on some stains, other stains are too deep to be cleaned. The stains may be penetrating through many layers of plaster, and cannot be cleaned, even with an acid wash.   

An acid wash can also be used effectively on Pebble Tec surfaces.  However, it should be noted that pebble pools may not visually appear much different after an acid wash.  This does not mean the wash was unsuccessful or beneficial.  The acid wash is useful for a good general cleaning and removing mineral "haze" which builds up, but the customer should not anticipate a huge visual difference with a pebble pool.

You should always hire a local pool cleaning service company who have experience doing acid washes to perform the acid wash. The muriatic acid is a toxic chemical and needed to be handled as such. If the acid is left too long on the pool plaster it will literally start burning into the plaster. It is highly advised that you hire a professional pool company such as Blue Cactus Pool Service LLC to perform this type of pool cleaning.


** PLEASE NOTE:  An acid wash or chlorine wash does NOT remove the white mineral build up commonly found on the water line.  This build up needs a completely different type of cleaning and is priced separately from an acid wash.
