Concrete Deck Gap Filling

[dtb]

I need to fill the gap between my pool deck and the coping. I've heard about something called "Bacarod" (sp?) that is used as a gap filler, followed by Vulcum as a self leveling sealant. Does anyone know about these materials and where they can be purchased? I can't seem to find much on the 'net.

Thanks,

Hello DTB.

I don't think that 'bacarod' is what you need 'bacarod' is a foam rope rod to

fill in expantion joints or cracks in concrete to help in the movement when the decks move. What you are looking for is a two part pourable mastic. It come in the color grey, tan, or white, and some time contractors will put a silica sand finsh over the mastic. The mastic is used between the coping and the decks, also between the deck slaps on pool decks. I can help you with this product you can e-mail me at blake@swimming-pool-secrets-revealed.com. you can let me know what your joint size is and the l. f. you have to do. I will let you know how much mastic you will need to fill your gap (joint). The mastic comes in 96oz. units for $80.00. per unit plus shipping. unit contains 1 kit of two cans where you mix small can with large can. plus (1) mixing paddle and (1) depencencing bottle. the l.f that each unit will do will depend on the size of the mastic jiont.

Hope I can H.E.L.P.
