This is a high quality paint that is incredibly durable, and will last up to eight years with simple routine maintenance before repainting is necessary. - Our paint can help seal small cracks in the pool surface. Once applied, this paint will create a highly polished, unified surface that is hard, abrasion-resistant, and non-porous. Giving your swimming pool that professional look for years to come. - Rain or morning dew won't affect the pools surface if its been at least three hours after completion. A milky discoloration may occur on the epoxy, not within the coating. However, that discoloration will disappear within a few weeks after filling the pool with water, leaving an immaculate coat of paint behind. - Epoxy pool paint will not adhere well to other paints, it is best to use a power washer to remove prior to painting. The hardening process for epoxy will take about a week for an outdoor swimming pool, and two weeks for an indoor pool. - CAUTION: epoxy based paints can make steps, shallow water, and wadding pools to become possible slipping hazards. To protect users, make these areas slip resistant by very lightly sifting silica sand on the paint while it is wet. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Brand | In The Swim | | Color | Dark Blue | | Finish Type | High-Gloss | | Size | 128 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) | | Item Volume | 1 Gallons | | Special Feature | Non Toxic | | Unit Count | 128 Fluid Ounces | | Paint Type | Epoxy | | Specific Uses For Product | Above-Ground | | Surface Recommendation | Tile | | Indoor/Outdoor Usage | Outdoor | | Item Form | Liquid | | Included Components | Roller | | Is Waterproof | True | | Model Name | A7230 | | Package Information | Can | | Color Code | #00008B | | Full Cure Time | 3 Hours | | Coverage | 125 - 150 square feet per gallon | | Water Resistance Level | Waterproof | | UPC | 801838032214 | | Manufacturer | Kelley Tech. | | Dry Time In Hours | 3 | | Part Number | A7230 | | Item Weight | 12.4 pounds | | Product Dimensions | 12.1 x 9.2 x 7.6 inches | | Item model number | A7230 | | Finish | High-Gloss | | Special Features | Non Toxic | | Batteries Included? | No | | Batteries Required? | No | ## Product Details - **Brand:** In The Swim - **Color:** Dark Blue - **Finish Type:** High-Gloss - **Size:** 128 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) - **Item Volume:** 1 Gallons - **Special Feature:** Non Toxic - **Unit Count:** 128 Fluid Ounces - **Paint Type:** Epoxy - **Specific Uses For Product:** Above-Ground - **Surface Recommendation:** Tile ## Images ![Dark Blue Super Poxy Shield - Epoxy-Base, High Gloss, Swimming Pool Paint - Long Lasting Stain Resistant - 1 Gallon (Old Packaging) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41AnVwZEErL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: How to prep surface** A: Pool ready paint ?.....sand all walls wash with phosphate solution le dryin for 1 hot day and paint (primer and coat) let drying for 4 to 5 daysPlaster pool ?.....patch all holes and sand all walls wash with phosphate solution le dryin for 1 hot day and paint (good primer and coat) let drying for 4 to 5 days **Q: Does this paint hold up in a spa / Jacuzzi ?** A: Used it in pool **Q: Would you recommend to remove all the epoxy paint from the pool, sand it, clean the surface and then paint it or to paint on top of the old paint?** A: For best results, the surface should be clean.

Good luck! **Q: Do i mix in sand with to the Primer or Paint for the steps?** A: Yes, as noted by In The Swim instructions to do so due to the smooth tile like finish. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great look *by V***R on July 1, 2022* First, I want to thank everyone who has ever written a review (good or bad) for the products I used for this project. This product worked great and I am happy with the finished result. I followed each step meticulously and took my time to be thorough. I recommend 2 people for the DYI ers. TSP wash, pressure wash. muriatic acid wash with Biodex, TSP wash again. I primed the surface even though it was not required. I ensured all loose paint was gone before priming. The instructions for mixing the epoxy is specific. Read the label and follow the directions based on the temperature outside. I did one coat and a second spot coat in a few areas I did not cover well with the first coat. I allowed up to 10 days to dry. We had a few overnight rain falls. Invest in a wet/dry vac to keep the surface in the deep end as dry as possible if it rains. Take out your hydrostatic plugs if you can. I was able to take one out and constantly checked the USGS website for ground water table levels in my area. Please be safe when using all products. Use protective clothing, respirator mask, rubber boots and gloves during your process. In the Swim has a great blog on their website to help you do your research and planning for a project like this. The color is "Pool Blue" not "Dark Blue". I only had one can of Dark Blue at the time and it was out of stock. The "Pool Blue" worked out great. Lastly, you must put an additive or sand on the steps during the priming/painting stage to ensure roughness. Make sure you add it evenly. I added two packs way more than what was advised. Your pool steps will be slick if you don't do this. I appreciate every YouTube video, blog, and review that helped educate me to complete this job. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very Pleased *by M***N on January 5, 2025* I was very pleased with the paint. It was easy to mix and apply. It dried and cured pretty quickly as well. We live in a somewhat humid environment, so I was impressed with how quickly we were able to refill the pool. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works amazing *by C***A on October 7, 2024* Beautiful colorI have used this paint before and will be using it again 3 days to cure. It lasts about 3 years with minor chipping after the second year but i 100% recommend this product just be careful applying. ## Frequently Bought Together - In The Swim Dark Blue Super Poxy Shield - Epoxy-Base, High Gloss, Swimming Pool Paint - Long Lasting Stain Resistant - 1 Gallon (Old Packaging) - In The Swim Pool Paint Preparation Surface Cleaner TriSodium Phosphate - 4 Pounds - In The Swim Gunite Primer for Epoxy-Base Swimming Pool Paints - 1 Gallon (New Packaging) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/29253044-dark-blue-super-poxy-shield-epoxy-base-high-gloss-swimming](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/29253044-dark-blue-super-poxy-shield-epoxy-base-high-gloss-swimming) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-01-31*
