Sterling30D Posted August 23, 2007 Report Share Posted August 23, 2007 This is our first pool and we went with the 3M Quartz Crystal finish. For some reason my daughter and her friend have come out of the pool after being in for a few hours with the bottom of their feet bloody. It looks like the they took sandpaper and rubbed the bottom of their toes raw. I use to swim a lot as a kid but I don't ever recall having this happen. Does anyone know if this is normal? The 3M Quartz doesn't feel smooth but isn't really rough either. We went with the Carribean Blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have not had the problem that you describe. It sounds like your pool is fairly new, did your pool builder instruct you to brush the pool a few times a day for the first couple of months? Are you brushing at least once per week now? It is my understanding that often rough plaster is the result of not enough brushing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
