Title: swimming pool inside glass
Post by: Malcal on April 16, 2007, 01:57:28 am

Hi all
Did the builders clean on a small swimming pool last week, at a commercial leisure complex, today (Sunday) cleaned the ins and outs after 7 days of water splashing on the internal glass it was a nightmare, covered in calcium stains. All the glass up to about 3 feet had to be scraped, it took ages. Any one got any tips.
Cheers Mal

yes if you put some vinegar in the water that should move it without having to scrape.

Try using a Sanitary Cleaner (which removes Limescale), this must have Inhibitors inside which prevent any damage to Chrome and Steel Surfaces, Basic Household Cleaners like Vinegar may in the long run cause a colouring of the metalic surface areas. Alway try on an inconspicious corner, so if any changes it wont be seen.

You could also purify the water in the swimming pool thereby removing the impurities ;D
