A spray texture is a popular cool deck resurfacing option for patio, pool deck, or driveway because it is versatile and easy to install. Despite the simplicity though, it requires great skill and the right equipment to properly install it and make it durable enough to last for many years. Aside from being popular for its slip-resistant texture, making it ideal for a pool deck, this overlay or coating is also known for how it stays cool despite exposure to direct sunlight for hours.
How are Cool Deck Coatings Installed?
- Step 1: The existing pool deck is cleaned and washed as part of the preparation. If there is a need to repair the surface, appropriate deck repair are done.
- Step 2: The spray knockdown texture deck coating is mixed and loaded into a hopper gun. Once loaded, the pool deck contractor first does a test spray on a different surface to ensure that the gun is working fine and the coating has the appropriate consistency.
- Step 3: The coating is sprayed on the entire pool deck, making sure that coverage is consistent and thorough. Make sure that nearby areas that will not be resurfaced are covered and protected with cloth or newspaper.
- Step 4: The sprayed material is then trowelled to knock it down, creating a textured surface that is similar to stucco but less intense.
- Step 5: The great thing about this coating is that it can be customized to the customer’s preferences. The coating can be stained, scored, or engraved. It is highly recommended to have it sealed with a clear sealer. This keeps the surface protected and makes it easier to clean and maintain. The sealer often lasts a couple of years, depending on usage, and may require a resealing every few years.
