Hello all, new to the site here. We just completed a concrete pool in Oklahoma. We plastered on Tuesday 7/20, acid washed Wednesday 7/21. Pool was filled as of yesterday afternoon, 7/22. Last night, and again this morning, I've noticed numerous wet spots on the exterior of our shotcrete walls. Roughly two sides of our pool walls are exposed, above ground, due to topography of our yard so this weeping is obviously coming from inside the pool. I would have expected seepage through just the shotcrete, but am surprised to see this much seepage after the plaster was applied. I've seen some threads on here about water seeping INTO the pool from the surrounding soil, but that is not my particular issue.
Is this normal or typical after only a few days of plaster to have water seeping out to the exterior? Does plaster's imperviousness improve over time? Hoping you all can ease my anxiety.
