Commercial pool guy in CA here. I’ve been there. Great job! It’s always satisfying cleaning a green pool and seeing it crystal clear on the other side. Well done fellas!!
My husband worked in the pool industry for 40 years, acid washing pools along with computer instructions. His body is covered in basal cell carcinoma and was just told he has lung cancer. I worked at the same place and I have pulmonary fibrosis. It is a very dangerous place to work.
@@sandyhughes1520 Thanks for your contribution. I'm sorry to hear of you and your husband's health problems. It's like smoking; every person's response to chemicals is different but generally, a person's experience speaks to the response of the majority. This is why a "safe workplace" is the responsibility of all, the employer, the employee and the Workers Union. Being informed and taking the correct precautions is necessary. People are still dealing with ASBESTOS in this day and age. I've known about the dangers of Asbestos for 65 years, thanks to my parents but still, not the necessary precautions are taken in disposing of old building materials. Most modern countries know about dangers but knowledge gets lost if people are careless and complacent. All the best to you both in a most difficult situation.
Pool came out great! However, for pools this covered in slippery algae, you might want to consider wearing a helmet for this initial rinse phase. One good fall backwards can really mess up your life. Stay safe out there!
Я не знаю как я здесь оказалась, но это было здорово. Сама не поняла как видео меня загипнотизировало 😅 с ума сойти какая большая работа была проделана. ребята, вы потрясающие! 😊 однозначно подписка. Желаю процветания вашему каналу!
Fantastic work ! True story, one of my earliest childhood nightmares was of a disgusting green pool and there were terrifying creatures in it! Not going to lie, I was really creeped out by this pool when you first arrived. Your hard work produced amazing results!
A suggestion. Get the cheap dollar store dish washer gel detergent stuff and bleach and spray that all over the surface and wait. The gel mixes with the bleach so it stays on the surfaces of walls and curves. It melts algea and mildew. After it dries then pressure wash it. Guaranteed it works better than the acid you first used. Its bleach so plan accordingly with the wind so you have an escape route you don't want to block yourself in with fumes. Remember chlorine and chlorine bleach will eat through materials if they get around it enough so plan accordingly. Probably still safer than acid and cheaper as well as more effective.
Also a hot water blaster would probably saved a couple of passes. And with a rotary head unit much easier on the arms and body. Learned this as a cellarhand in large wineries. Great work and results though guys!
That's a truly awesome pool there. Wow. Nice and deep. I absolutely HATE all these shallow pools everywhere now, and all overheated so you can't even cool off on a hot day. Give me one of these any day! Thanks guys for your beautiful restoration job! One day I dream to have a pool of my own, likely smaller but just as deep, so I can swim down and graze bottom in the cold, clear water. You did a fantastic job!
Right, big enough for the whole family on a hot southern summer day. Sad part about it is that most people can’t swim these days. Me and my siblings knew how
I see a lot of comments that say do it this way or that way is faster but wouldn’t you want someone to take their time so you can get the best outcome instead of doing everything fast Great job to the man cleaning this pool
Watching the chemical reaction from the acid hitting the algae was awesome to see. The two of you knocking it out in a couple of days is some boss type work. 🫡
I agree, a surface cleaner is definitely a time saver. I used one to clean my 400-foot driveway in just a couple of hours. It also provides a more even cleaning job.
Wow what a great job. Very fun to watch. I bet it wasn't so fun to do though LOL. Very satisfying. I am now going to go see if you have more videos like this lol
When was this pool built? Looks like something from the 70’s. I don’t think they build them like this anymore. Quite a large pool. Beautiful shape. That was a LOT of work!
You guys are really hard workers. I bet your sore from all that. You rocked it though. Great job! I gotta subscribe so i can watch more of them. Thanks guys. Keep up the great work!
You need to find sodium hypochlorite, you can buy a mixer gun which mixes the chemical with soap so it becomes a foam, very fast to cover the whole pool and you just leave for 15 minutes and then rinse no heavy scrubbing needed it stays on the surface even on the sides of a pool or walls your cleaning, it will save you hours of work and with the mixing gun you will probably only use one or two barrels of chemicals and a little soap, your acid falls off the surface before it’s dissolves the dirty, great job just the time and effort not necessary, watch external cleaning videos on UA-cam in the U.K. as we are very wet here and everything turns green in winter, you will see the chemicals and gun mixer being used by all the cleaners here ✌🏽
Sodium Hypochlorite is just plain pool chlorine. It's as thin as the hydrochloric acid that they are using. In other videos where they use an X-Jet to soft wash apply the SH they add a surfactant that thickens and helps to foam up the SH so that it sticks better to increase the effectiveness during it's dwell time. This acid is a much stronger cleaner that actually dissolves or etches a little bit of the pool's gunite removing not only algae but other stains like orange, red, and yellow rust stains that SH would do nothing to. You really wouldn't want it on the surface any longer than necessary. That's why it instantly turns the surface white and then they pressure wash it off rather quickly. In some angles you can see what looks like smoke or steam from the acid giving of gas as it etches the surface. Cheers!
Everything was so relaxing: you have an amazing soothing deep voice, your speechless teamwork brings very calming strength, and raw watersounds or music are perfect! I have to mention that the yellow t-shirt + camo workpants + black rubber boots (and blue gloves!) suits you both very well...
I used to acid wash and paint pools decades ago but never with a power washer. That was excellent, and makes me miss those days but I don't miss the acid fumes. Do you use soda ash in the end to neutralize the plaster? I used to. Also the waste water was always a concern flowing down the street. Hey I was young and there weren't many restrictions back them. I am sure I cleaned a lot of car tires in the neighborhood - or damaged them. Who knows?
You should get a dirt eater tip for your pressure washer. It spins and cleans alot faster. I used to use them for cleaning crab pots.I think I got mine from tractor supply or grainger.
Great job with that pool transformation as I was watching a video. I was just thinking about my Auntie pool. We stay in Miami in her pool has been swimming with algae frogs little fish for 15 years and her pool is not near as big as the pool that she was working on, she needs help. She hasn’t had the money to hire a pool person to clean and fix the pool and which I was doing which is giving me the food was great by the way I’m a new subscriber.
Great job, and I love the fact you from the Caribbean... as soon as I heard your voice... i subbed not even finish watch the video :) let me go watch the rest of the videos.
We got 17.65 per hour to clean this pool. Subscribe if u think we deserve more.
Excellent job, i hope you earned well out of it you deserve every cent.
How much would a pool like this cost to clean?
A dignidade de um bom homem vem do seu trabalho. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Hey do you guys use oscillating pressure washer tip ?

@@hkspowers003 respect …. Yeah we have to be careful
Very true words buddy, I know of two people.
Excellent advice!
Glad this is the top comment and not something ridiculous.
Perhaps also only walk on the surfaces you've pressure washed and cleared as well.

I usually watch roof and sidewalk cleaning. This was great!
Than you appreciate you
These deep cleaning videos are so soothing!
кстати, классная фиолетовая шляпа! у моего папы есть такая же для работы в саду, только она зелёного цвета 😄
Wow ! The difference is night and day. Beautiful result, great work.
Amazing work!! Got to say, both working on top of the acid one wearing a mask and the other one not made my anxiety spike 😱
Hard workers did a great job!!
The big guy should've been wearing a mask like the other guy. Always protect yourself
Yes! I would love cleaning it. 😊
I love before and after.videos. thanks!
Fantastic work ! True story, one of my earliest childhood nightmares was of a disgusting green pool and there were terrifying creatures in it! Not going to lie, I was really creeped out by this pool when you first arrived. Your hard work produced amazing results!
Super immaculate job! Very hard working men... Satisfying to watch.

amazing work but you should invest in a surface cleaning pressure washer it saves so much time and its definitely worth its price.
Great point!
Easier on the body too! 😊
And a rose head for your watering can
Agreed. Also have the guy spraying SLOW down his spraying technique. Let the tool, not his arms, do the work.
Also a hot water blaster would probably saved a couple of passes. And with a rotary head unit much easier on the arms and body. Learned this as a cellarhand in large wineries. Great work and results though guys!

It is not about being faster. It is about making your work easier for yourself and less hard on your body.

That had to cost a lot of money to do. I know that’s a lot of work !! Great job !
Watching the chemical reaction from the acid hitting the algae was awesome to see. The two of you knocking it out in a couple of days is some boss type work. 🫡
It's definitely a process for sure! We appreciate you. Stay blessed
Wow that was one grubby, dirty pool. You guys did a great job and I understand just how many hours it too to make that pool clean and beautiful.
I agree, a surface cleaner is definitely a time saver. I used one to clean my 400-foot driveway in just a couple of hours. It also provides a more even cleaning job.
It definitely makes the job so much easier. I appreciate you for watching

I thought I saw this being done really quick, before!
Good information. I will keep this in mind when I start my own company. I just use what they gave me in this instance.
Same thoughts here.

Ich hätte nie gedacht, das Algen so heftig sind zu entfernen.( Englisch I never thought algae would be so difficult to remove.)
This specific one stained beyond understanding
