Less than a week. Depending on the temperature.
Do a bucket test to determine if there is in fact a leak. Put a bucket on the top step in the pool, add water to it to about the same level as the water level on the outside of the bucket. Mark both the inside and outside of the bucket at water levels. Within 12 hrs. check the water levels again. If they are both dropping at the same rate then you most likely do not have a leak. You can expect up to 1 1/2" per week evaporation. If the level of pool water has dropped more than the level inside the bucket then you may have a leak. A leak detection service will find your leak most likely within a few hours. The white spots may indicate that you are loosing your plaster top coating. Also, is the pool painted or does it have a plaster finish. Possibilities for this are: Improper chemical balance for long periods Old plaster Plaster that has been left dry for more than a few hours. Bad plaster job if new plaster. Blisters usually caused when the pool has been left dry for a few hours. Bad acid wash if that has been performed within the last two years. k
If there is water in it you can heat it.
Long boards are better.
Mine stayed in plaster for about 10-12 weeks
It really depends on the condition of your plaster. Could be from days up to a few weeks.
You should be able to use it as soon as there is water in the pool
Is the water rusty color? Or is the rust color on the pool finish - plaster or vinyl or fiberglass?
Your lifetime if the pool is well maintained and refurbished about every 10 yrs. or so.
Long boards are actually not a list of information and announcements. The most popular usage of the word long board is used in reference to skate boards.
Frescos are murals painted onto plaster. Buon fresco, the technique of painting on wet plaster, creates vibrant colors and lasts a long time. Fresco secco, the technique of painting on dry plaster, does not last nearly as long.
Possibly,as long as there's no pressure behind it. -I will test that soon.
The plaster mold is very, very dry. When you pour, the clay slip is mostly water and the plaster mold sucks up the moisture quickly, creating a coating inside the mold. It's like pouring gravy onto a sponge...the water is absorbed, but the solids stay on top of the sponge if you leave it long enough. It's the same way with a plaster mold..it's a sponge. That's the reason you watch the pour opening and pour out the excess when it is the thickness you need. The plaster will continue to absorb until the clay pulls away from the mold naturally, yet it is still green.
