To effectively remove stains from your cool deck, utilize a solution comprised of one gallon of water mixed with baking soda, ammonia, and vinegar. Apply this mixture to the affected areas and gently scrub using a non-abrasive brush. This method should effectively eliminate most stains from your cool deck surface.

For repairing small hairline cracks in your cool deck, begin by thoroughly cleaning the surface and allowing it to dry completely. Next, apply a thin bead of tan-colored caulking directly into the crack. Once the caulking has set, paint over it to achieve a seamless finish that blends with the surrounding area.

To maintain the appearance of your cool pool deck over time, focus on protecting it from its primary adversaries: water, salt, and sun. Prevent water damage by avoiding puddle formation, as standing water can cause staining and delamination. For salt water pools, request an 'Effex' coating application before cool deck installation to minimize salt damage. To guard against sun damage, repaint your cool deck every 5-7 years using acrylic paint specifically designed for cool decks, which contains UV-protective sealers.

Following the completion of work, reactivate your water auto-fill leveler. Refrain from walking on the finished surface for 48 hours. Allow a 10-day period before placing furniture or other items on the deck to ensure complete drying. Avoid water puddling to prevent staining. Do not drag objects across the deck surface. Use touch-up paint to address any minor damage. Remember to turn your water auto-fill leveler back on once these steps are completed.

To clean the pool water post-work, operate your pump for three consecutive nights, at least 8 hours each session. This process helps filter out fine dust particles that are difficult for the crew to remove. It's crucial to backwash the filter daily for three consecutive days following each night of pump operation. Failure to perform this backwashing procedure may result in damage to your pool equipment.
