When it comes to crafting stunning pool finishes, precision is everything. At CL Industries, we manufacture our finishes in large batches of up to 8,000 lbs., relying on high-quality, naturally mined raw materials. As with any natural product, slight variations are expected from one batch to the next. To ensure a flawless, uniform appearance in every pool, professional applicators employ a technique known as “boxing.”
What is the Boxing Technique in Pool Finishing?
Boxing is the process of mixing different batch numbers in proportional ratios that match the job’s requirements. By balancing batches, the applicator ensures that any subtle differences between batches blend smoothly into a consistent finish across the entire pool surface.
Example: Boxing Technique in Action for Pool Finishes
Imagine a project requires forty (40) bags of pool finish. The job site has thirty (30) bags from Batch A and ten (10) bags from Batch B. To achieve consistency:
- The applicator should mix two (2) bags of Batch A for every one (1) bag of Batch B in each mix.
This approach blends both batches evenly, helping achieve a seamless look from start to finish.
Top Benefits of Using Boxing for Consistent Pool Finishes
Using the boxing technique is recommended for all Preblended pool finish applications. It minimizes visible variations, ensuring the beautiful, uniform appearance that CL Industries finishes are known for.
