The Plain Truth About Synthetic Rock.

Was the master plan to build your  magical back yard resort so that you would never have to pay for another expensive vacation ever again? I hear this a lot.

 

 
99% of my clients want nothing more then a truly peaceful place to relax and have that morning cup of coffee and to have a really neat place to enjoy their family and friends on a pleasant summer swim party.



 
The entire exotic pool experience is about , creating feelings that we all share-the need for relaxation, and serenity, the exact same feelings we all get on those special Hawaiian getaways.




The only real problem is how can you relax when your always spending money maintaining your back yard wonderland every year or two.



 
Aren't you getting a little tired of synthetic rock repaint jobs that never last more then a year or two? Or even worse getting a new paint job that doesn't even come close to looking real, Or how about that white calcium mess completely around the waterline of the pool and at the Jacuzzi spillway. Or do you have a slide that isn't even slippery when it's wet???



 
No wonder there are lots of unhappy exotic pool owners!



 
Let me tell you a little story that will solve these nasty problems for you. About 25 years ago these exact same  problems were happening to commercial resort water features all over the world ,and trust me repainting synthetic rock at Disneyland every year or two is completely unacceptable.



 
The solution was really kind of simple but has proven successful now for decades all you have to do is visit the Magic Kingdom and just try to find any faded synthetic rock paint jobs or much of a calcium problem, you won't find these problems anywhere!



 
Due to the fact I don't want to bore you to death I'll give you the Readers Digest version of the solution. The main problem was-When water gets inside the synthetic rock, it activates the calcium in the cement, the funny thing about calcium is it will always blast its way to the surface-

 

 
of the synthetic rock through a small crack or a weak paint job. All the proof you will need is walk out in your own back yard and look at your water feature to see all the odd places calcium is popping up, any place that dose not have consistent contact with water should not have any calcium problem at all.



 
For example the slide only gets water once in a while yet the leading cause of losing the finish on your slide is calcium eating its way through the finish.



 
So the solution was waterproofing the cement first then paint then seal the paint with a sealer that will withstand 4000 PSI of water pressure and it must be loaded with uv protection. The main reason you want your sealer to have such a high PSI rating is so you can blast the waterline calcium off yourself with a simple pressure washer.



 
I have a very serious question for you to answer now! Do you think any of these commercial coatings exist for the residential pool owner? Yes,



 
My next Question is- has anybody repainted your water feature offered you a lifetime guarantee that simply states If your new water feature repaint job ever fades or peals we will repaint it again free for as long as you live in your home?



  My personal Guarantee to you is that your water feature will absolutely pop with realism far beyond your wildest expectations And last for as long as you own your home, or we will paint it again free.



 
My repaint jobs require an average of five days to complete. Just my preparation stage takes longer then all my competitors full paint jobs. As far as I am concerned preparation is the most important stage of the entire process because if done well your repaint job will last 15 to 20 years.




 
The painting stage is the fun part for me, Just pick up any real rock even gray granite and you will discover a multitude of different colors and shades the reason my synthetic rock rock repaint jobs look so real is I duplicate every detail possible, I can even duplicate mica found in the best flagstone, mica is the sparkle you see in this kind of flag stone.




 
Its not hard to make rock look real from a distance the real trick is when it looks real up close and that's the kind of rock repainting I specialize in. I think you should know about toners because it's how we customize the look and feel of  your synthetic water feature.




 The toner process is simple and it's the only work you are required to do. This fun and easy process is the next to last step and normally takes less then an hour. You sit down look at the project and tell me exactly what you think. For example Scott I think that rock should be a little darker or that gray rock should be tan, with toners we can dial in the water feature exactly to the look and feel you really want.


 
The preparation stage consists of soda blasting to remove pealing paint and expose all the cracks next we remove calcium then we power wash everything with 4000 PSI of water pressure to remove everything from all the cracks and crevasses.




 
After the entire water feature has been prepped for new paint the next step is to repair cracks, holes anything wrong that will allow water to enter the inside the synthetic rock must be fixed.



 
Next a thick waterproofing coat is sprayed on your entire water feature to stop water from entering the inside of the synthetic rock.




 
Next a commercial epoxy fortified primer is sprayed from top to bottom of the water feature this is why your new paint job will never peal and is the end of the preparation stage.



 
It's my hope that you can clearly understand why I can give you an honest lifetime guarantee.
 Your water feature will have been prepared with finest commercial coatings available.




 
The next process is really the fun part for me because its art. I unleash over 30 years experience of making synthetic rock look real for you. I'm really a Tim The Tool Guy When it comes to the paint job I use only the finest automotive spray guns and air brushes to produce extraordinary long lasting results for you.

What My Clients have to Say?

Good Morning Scott,

I would like to express my appreciation for the recent project you completed on our property. Even when our rock pool / spa and surroundings were newly installed, the rock did not look half as good as your completed project. You were not exaggerating when you told me the rocks would look better than the real thing. I’ve had several projects completed in the past where time and expense was used cleaning up after their completed project. Unlike your project where you fixed/cleaned items in need of repair and left my property in much better condition than when you arrived. We will be spending our vacation this year at our “resort” in the backyard. Thanks again Scott, you are a true artist. Please feel free to use my wife and I as a reference.
