Drylok as surface prep??

[halleys5]

I’ve got a new vinyl pool nearing the finish line.
Under the liner (the floor), we did a Portland wet mix (mortar more or less). It is smooth here and there but in some areas pretty rough.
We have a delay while waiting for the vinyl install and I was thinking about maybe doing drylok over the whole floor (walls are steel).
My thinking is that it might even out some of the rough patches and protect the liner. Maybe not a real concern, but I happen to have 10 gallons left over and thought I see if the brain trust has any thoughts.
Thanks in advance!

Curious if you took the plunge with Drylock or just left it alone. I used Drylock years ago when covering a new concrete fountain. Nice stuff, but I don't know about using it for that purpose.

I did actually. I’ve only done the rough spots and high traffic areas for now. It does seem to make a difference. Also seam between concrete and steel. Since we don’t have the decking in yet, I was getting some water seepage at that location. This stuff sealed it up great.
