United Chemical Startup Treat™ Advanced Plaster & Scale Protection | SUST-GAL

United Chemical Startup Treat SUST-GAL is a concentrated pool start-up treatment designed to safeguard new plaster and interior pool finishes throughout the filling and curing process. Its specialized formula uses effective chelating agents and scale inhibitors to capture metals, calcium, and hard-water minerals before they can create stains, surface mottling, or scaling. By stabilizing mineral content during initial fill, it helps reduce plaster dust accumulation and supports a smoother curing outcome. The phosphate-free composition is compatible with all plaster finishes and is especially beneficial in areas with high calcium hardness or challenging fill water. Each one-gallon container treats up to 20,000 gallons, delivering consistent chemical protection during residential pool start-ups.
