About US

MicroGlass – Developed by Pool Pros for Pool Pros

MICROGLASS LLC IS THE OFFICIAL OWNER OF THE MICROGLASS TECHNOLOGY, DEVELOPED FOR SWIMMING POOL PLASTER AND PEBBLE INTERIOR FINISHES.

MicroGlass Origin

Spray-applying MicroGlass is not rocket science. But our manufacturing process certainly is.

In 1999, the brilliant mind of William Reed revolutionized the pool industry with a groundbreaking liquid delivery system. This game-changing technology seamlessly infuses pool finishes with glass-like nanoparticles, ensuring superior protection and longevity.

 What started as a closely guarded secret among Reed and a select group of pool builders is now a widely acclaimed solution, trusted on thousands of pools and spas annually by pool builders and renovators, plaster applicators and pool service professionals.

ABOUT THE MICROGLASS TEAM

MicroGlass is led by a team of highly experienced pool industry specialists who know a lot about pool plaster.
This includes Loren Granstrom of WetEdge fame, and Alan Smith, the owner and founder of Alan Smith Pools.
