The redo of my plaster (mostly white plaster with very little blue quarts) is very uneven with a lot of places that almost look like bubbles. There are holes in the plaster and a place that looks like rake marks. In full sun it is hard to see, but with the light on at night it looks horrible
[I had the coping, tile and plaster replaced spring this year. The plaster was a third layer. Long story, but the pool had to be drained and the plaster delaminated and had to be redone. They were just going to add a 4th layer but I had them chip it out to concrete. Second pour was in July (Texas).]
I have 2 questions:
1 - Does anyone know what could have caused this warping/buckling/bubbling?
2 - I had read on this site that an acid startup was hard on plaster, and I didn't like how it worked the first time, so I asked them not to do it this time. When I hired someone to give me an opinion on the quality of the work he indicated that the plaster won't cure properly without an acid startup. Can someone direct me to some resources on this topic?
Thank you so much!
Sorry the pic is not super clear. Hard to get a good photo
