How to waterproof tiles in a spa?

I have removed the tiles of our outdoor spa and plan to waterproof. I will patch surface to make it reasonably flat  and put a fillit around bottom edge. What bunnings product can I now waterproof this with. I won't be putting tiles back on. 

Cheers B1

Re: waterproof

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @B1. It's great to have you join us and many thanks for your question on waterproofing a pool.

 

I’m not aware of any waterproofing products at Bunnings that would be suitable for sealing a spa once the tiles are removed. Spas and pools need very specific membranes and coatings that are designed to withstand constant water immersion, movement, and chemicals, and these aren’t the same as standard waterproofing or pond sealers. Bunnings only carries products up to the level of pond sealers, which aren’t appropriate or durable enough for spa or pool applications.

 

For this type of project, you’d need to look at a specialist pool/spa coating system.

 

Please let me know if you have any questions.
