Just got my first quote to have the pool replastered, and I have a question.
PB quotes it two ways, one a standard plaster and the other "multicoat" system, which he claims gives improved bonding to the old surface. He backs it up with a two year warranty instead of one year for the standard.
Anyone have any experience with this multicoat? Some quick googling turns up a proprietary product called Multicoat Scratch Kote 2000 that sounds like what is involved. Is this a product or procedure that provides real benefits or just a way to charge more for the same thing? As far as I knew (though there's a lot I don't know) plaster sticks to plaster pretty darn well.
Thanks.
