E-Z Pooldeck® Acrylic Coating for Cement Pool Decks, Patios and Coping Stones is a professional grade, water based, epoxy fortified, low sheen acrylic coating that will help prevent staining and will restore old surfaces without filling in textured surfaces and give them that “like new” appearance.
Our product is a tough, durable, UV protected, non-skid coating that withstands the elements such as rain, sleet, snow, heat or sun without lifting. It also seals pool decks from salt water deterioration.In colder climates, it protects from spalling due to freeze-thaw cycles. E-Z Pooldeck® is easier to apply (no extra thickeners) and longer lasting due to its high quality formula. Not for use on wood decks.
For decades we have tested other pooldeck coatings compared to our E-Z Pooldeck® Coating. We have found that our formula is longer lasting and easier to apply.

INTRODUCTION: E-Z Pooldeck® is a Professional Grade water based epoxy fortified acrylic low sheen coating that will help prevent staining and restores old surfaces to a like new appearance without “filling in” textured surfaces. Product is a tough, durable anti-skid coating that withstands the elements such as rain, sleet, snow, heat or sun without lifting. In colder climates it protects the deck from spalling due to freeze-thaw cycles. E-Z Pooldeck® is easier to apply (no extra thickeners) and longer lasting (high quality formulation). *Our Renovation Dept. has used this special formulation since 1990 with excellent very long lasting results.
PREPARATIONS: Do not apply to surfaces treated with a curing agent, as use of this will adversely affect adhesion. To insure good adhesion, the surface needs to be cleaned thoroughly. We recommend using 36 grit sandpaper disc on a 7” sander to remove any dark stains, loose paint, mineral deposits, etc. from the surface. Any cement surfaces must be etched first using muriatic acid.
Proper care should be taken to prevent the possibility of acid burns by wearing rubber boots, rubber gloves, approved breathing filter and safety eyewear. Mix a solution of 50% muriatic acid with 50% water. For proper care, pour the water into a bucket first and then add muriatic acid. Wet the surface with water. Apply the solution to the exposed surface and immediately broom around to distribute evenly. After waiting 1 to 3 minutes, thoroughly rinse and scrub (at the same time) removing any trace of residue. For best results, we recommend using a pressure washer with a 15-degree tip held 4” to 8” from surface.
Surfaces that are already painted or have any oil contamination need to be cleaned using T.S.P. (tri-sodium phosphate). Mix approx. 1 cup T.S.P. to 4 gallons of water, allow 3 minutes to dissolve, stir and apply the solution to the surface. Scrub strongly with a stiff bristle broom. After waiting 5 to 10 minutes, rinse and scrub thoroughly (at the same time) removing any trace of residue. For best results, we recommend using a pressure washer with a 15-degree tip held 4” to 8” from surface.
Allow surface to dry before applying coating or making any repairs needed to surface. If there are areas or cracks that need to be patched prior to applying the coating, use E-Z PATCH® Quality Repair Supplies. Usually E-Z PATCH 2 is used to repair any chipped areas or cracks.
APPLICATION: Spreading rate is 250-325 square feet per gallon. Our product is made with a high quality acrylic that is high in solids and should not be applied in thick coats. Temperature must be above 50° F. Do not coat cement surfaces that are above 90º F. without cooling down by slightly dampening the surface with water (no puddles) prior to 1st coat. Do not dampen painted surfaces.
Mix thoroughly using a drill with a paddle wheel or a mixing stick. This product should be applied in two coats on unpainted surfaces, but one coat is usually all that is needed on painted surfaces.
On unpainted surfaces, the first coat should be thinned with 1 pint to 1 quart of water per gallon of coating. The second coat should not be thinned. Allow drying 1 to 4 hours (depending on temperature) before applying second coat full strength on unpainted surfaces.
On painted surfaces coating should not be thinned with water = apply full strength.
Use a medium nap roller on textured surfaces and a short nap roller on flat surfaces. Apply coating using firm pressure and remember to roll out any streaking as you go!
Tools can be cleaned using water or warm soapy water before coating hardens.
Wait 8 hours for light traffic and 24 hours for heavier use.
Wait 48 hours before hosing off or placing furniture.
Furniture placed on coated surfaces should have protective rests.
