Approx Gallonage: 28k
Dimensions. 18 x 30
Notes: The swimming pool plaster is in fair condition. It has "dry" cracks throughout the swimming pool. This more than likely happened as a result of sitting dry for longer than 1 week. I would expect this plaster, if maintained correctly with ph balance, to last another 5-10 years without any issue.
