Helpful video for those of us considering this product who have exposed aggregate pool decks. It would have been nice to see the exposed aggregate compared to the two coats or 3 coats to see how much it filled in. Also, how the product covers the wood expansion joints would have been nice to see. Still on the fence about this product and our exposed aggregate deck is a no go for bare feet.
I sure wish this would have addressed how to deal with loose pebbles. What is the prep process to ensure the loose pebbles don’t create the same results as powder?
@@scotteebee if they survive a 3k psi pressure washing , they’re good to go. Whatever pops up during pressure washing is what could’ve caused an issue.
@@encorecoatingsuniversity3203 Hmmm. I haven’t pressure washed my pebble aggregate. I just know I find little pebbles in the pool all of the time. But, what I’m hearing you suggest is that after pressure washing, I should be good to go.
I'm trying to understand how this saves money, as I would like to use this for my 5500 sq ft aggragete driveway. This is what I have gathered so far. For the job shown for this video, it took 64 units (buckets) of Cool Coating @ $250 a bucket at Lowes = $16,000. Additionally, you need to buy a 1 gallon bucket of paint for each Cool Coat unit, so in the example for this video, another 64 gallons of paint, 64 gallons of paint @ $30 a gallon = $1,920. I don't know what the customer paid for labor, but we're at $18,000 for just the material before all other things considered with labor and additional material. I have received quotes to resurface my 5500 sq ft driveway in the range of $25,000-$30,000. IMO, I would rather pay a little more to have it fully resurfaced correctly than to paint over aggregate. Please let me know what I'm missing here, as I would like to use this product if suitable for my job. Thank you for any feedback!
This product makes sense for a pool deck where people are barefoot - a pool deck that is otherwise non-functional because its so sharp on the feet. Aged aggregate becomes this way. This product is NOT for driveways. Yes, this product can seem expensive once a surface such as this starts soaking it up, the coverage is heavily compromised. But it’s still much more cost effective vs. demolition and removal of the existing aggregate to replace with new concrete or new aggregate . Thanks !

Thank you for sharing this. I have an outdated aggregate pebble deck. I want to apply cool crete over it.
Great video. I don’t have exposed aggregate but I do have bugs! Going to order some of the new bug spray along with my Cool kits👍
Thank you so much!!! Would love to hear how y’all like it. Really appreciate it. Lemongrassfarms.com

Thanks for the video . I am wondering , why don’t you use a grinder first to make the floor leveled then use the epoxy
Then you would not need the product. The grinder would work. That's lot of grinding!
