Will the left reconsider their BS allegation that Trump stiffed contractors if these guys are forced to redo the work for free?

If they are anything like the government contracts I've seen over the last nearly 30 years then, yes, there usually is a warranty. Usually several covering material defects, workmanship, etc. Sure you imagine otherwise but you are a fricking retard afterall...

There’s also been reports of vandalism so that might be it too.


I’ve seen some pretty detailed and convincing posts from internet autists about the issue.

Their conclusion was the surface wasn’t sanded prior to application. But more importantly, they applied a plaster sealant used for pools instead of a concrete sealant, which they also didn’t allow to cure before filling with water.

"Trump's reflecting pool...$14 Million."

Reading the news, you'd swear Trump painted it himself.

Damn, these tropical rains have been hell on my pool. Water now has algae. Couple sacks of salt and a little chlorine shock should get me taken care of hopefully, Pray for me.

Thats the least shocking thing you’ll hear today.

From my experience, they are almost always bonded with a warranty.

What are you getting at?

It’s fake news. …. Again.

No need for a warranty claim.

Libs still think what was sprayed was just paint that can peel off

It was closer to a rubberized bed liner than it is to paint. If done properly, it would take grinding machinery to remove it

Thinking it is already flaking off, or that diluted peroxide is going to harm it somehow, is retarded

12% Peroxide applied directly to paint undiluted, wouldn't remove paint. Much less this industrial coating. Even less when you realize the 12% was diluted by the water.

They want it to fail so badly, but once the algae is removed and the new bubbler they installed is able to filter all the water regularly, it should always be clear water with a blue backing

Generally it’s a terrible idea to paint a pool. But usually even balanced chlorinated pools take a few years to begin to peel off. And not in such large strips as shown in videos.

Interesting.

More shocking than the fricking rife stupidity of posters like GCT, is the fact that some lunatic took time out from his pointless life to make a giant paint chip to throw in there to make the president look bad.
