FIBREGLASS POOL ACETONE 5L
Description
Many pool owners and contractors struggle with cleaning tools and preparing surfaces when working with fibreglass pools. Resin can harden quickly, brushes and rollers can clog, and contaminated surfaces often lead to failed adhesion. That’s where Fibreglass Pool Acetone 5L comes in — a professional-grade solvent that tackles these pain points directly.
By dissolving uncured resin, grease, wax, and contaminants, it ensures surfaces are perfectly clean for bonding. Contractors in Gauteng, Cape Town, Durban, and beyond rely on acetone to extend the life of their tools, improve the durability of fibreglass linings, and prevent costly rework. With fast evaporation and residue-free cleaning, it’s the go-to choice across South Africa for fibreglass pool projects.
FAQs
Q: Why is acetone better than other solvents for fibreglass pool work?
A: Acetone evaporates quickly without leaving residue, ensuring a clean, dry surface that’s perfect for resin bonding.
Q: What happens if I don’t clean surfaces with acetone before applying resin?
A: Dirt, grease, and wax can prevent resin from bonding properly, leading to peeling, bubbles, or premature lining failure.
Q: Can I reuse brushes and rollers after cleaning with acetone?
A: Yes, acetone dissolves uncured resin and topcoat, allowing you to reuse tools and save money on replacements.
Q: Is acetone safe to use in enclosed spaces?
A: No. Always use it in a well-ventilated area or outdoors, as fumes can be strong and flammable.
Q: Why shouldn’t I thin resin or gel coat with acetone?
A: Thinning weakens the fibreglass structure, reduces UV stability, and can cause yellowing and pinholes.
Q: Do I really need 5 litres for a project?
A: Yes. Even small projects can require large amounts of solvent, especially when cleaning tools repeatedly.
Q: Can this be delivered anywhere in South Africa?
A: Absolutely. Delivery is available nationwide via courier (2–7 working days, depending on area).

FIBREGLASS POOL ACETONE 5L
Product Description
Fibreglass Pool Acetone (5L) is a high-purity solvent specially formulated for fibreglass pool construction and repair projects. Essential for professional contractors and pool maintenance specialists, acetone is the most effective cleaning agent for removing uncured resin, adhesives, wax, grease, and contaminants from tools, brushes, and fibreglass surfaces.
Its rapid evaporation ensures no sticky residue, making it the ideal choice for surface preparation prior to resin bonding or top coat application. By ensuring a grease- and dust-free surface, acetone promotes proper adhesion and extends the lifespan of your fibreglass lining or repair work.
⚠️ Important Use Notice: While acetone is excellent for cleaning and degreasing, it should never be used to thin polyester resin, gel coats, or top coats. Thinning can compromise strength, cause yellowing, create pinholes, and reduce UV resistance.
Supplied in a 5-litre sealed container, this product is available for both collection and nationwide delivery (2–7 working days). Handle with care—acetone is highly flammable and should be stored in tightly sealed containers away from heat sources.
FAQs
Q: Can I use acetone to thin resin or top coat?
A: No. Thinning resin or top coat with acetone weakens the structure, causes pinholes, and affects colour stability. Use it only for cleaning and surface prep.
Q: What is acetone used for in pool fibreglassing?
A: It removes uncured resin, grease, wax, dust, and contaminants from tools and surfaces, ensuring strong adhesion of new resin and top coat layers.
Q: Is this acetone safe for domestic use?
A: Yes, provided you follow safety precautions: wear gloves, work in a ventilated area, and keep away from open flames or sparks.
Q: How much area can 5L of acetone clean?
A: Coverage depends on usage, but typically one 5L container is sufficient for cleaning tools, brushes, and surfaces on a medium-sized pool project.
Q: Can it be shipped nationwide?
A: Yes. Delivery is available to all 9 provinces in South Africa via courier (2–7 working days depending on location).
Q: What safety precautions should I take?
A: Always keep acetone in a sealed container, store away from heat, and never smoke or use open flames nearby. Use protective gloves and ensure proper ventilation.
