Quick overview
- Fast set formula Mixes to a thick consistency and starts to harden within minutes, so a patch can be pressed in place and troweled flush.
- Works underwater Designed for repairs made below the waterline as well as above water with the level dropped.
- No bonder required Fast Set formulas do not need Liquid Acrylic Bonder, so nothing else has to be bought with the kit.
- Good choice in cold weather The fast set chemistry is the one to reach for when temperatures are low or when plaster will be painted after the repair.
- Back in service quickly If the water was lowered, the pool can be refilled after four hours and swimming can resume the next day.
- Modified cement mix Contains pozzolans, siliceous volcanic ash, and polymers rather than plain cement.

Product details
E-Z Patch 1 F.S. is a white plaster repair mix formulated to set fast, in a 3 lb size that covers about 1 sq ft at 3/8 inch depth. It is intended for chips, cracks and worn spots in a plastered pool surface, and it can be worked underwater or above water with the level dropped.
Why the fast set version
The quick set chemistry is what makes an underwater patch possible: the mix stiffens in your hand before it can wash out, so it can be pressed into the repair and troweled flat. The same property makes it the right choice for cold weather work and for repairs that will be painted afterward. Fast Set formulas also skip the Liquid Acrylic Bonder step that other plaster patches require.
Working with it
Chip the damaged area at least 3/8 inch deep with the edges cut straight down rather than beveled, and clean the surface first. Add water sparingly and mix thick, using warm water for a faster set and cold water to slow it down. Work in small amounts, because the mix is only usable for a few minutes once it is wet.
The formula is a modified cement containing pozzolans, siliceous volcanic ash, and polymers. Store the unopened product between 30 degrees F and 110 degrees F. After an above water repair the pool can be refilled in four hours, and swimming can resume the following day.
