GLB Sequa-Sol 32oz – Pool Stain & Scale Preventer
Prevent Stains and Scale Before They Start
Metal stains and scale deposits are two of the most frustrating problems pool owners face. Rust-colored streaks, greenish spots, and rough mineral buildup can make even a well-maintained pool look neglected. The solution is prevention—and that’s exactly what GLB Sequa-Sol 32oz delivers.
This liquid stain and scale preventer works by sequestering (binding) dissolved metals and minerals in your pool water. By locking them into solution, Sequa-Sol stops metals like copper, iron, and manganese from depositing onto pool surfaces and prevents calcium from forming unsightly scale on walls, steps, heaters, and plumbing.
For long-term protection and consistently beautiful pool water, Sequa-Sol is the trusted choice of homeowners and pool professionals alike.
Why Pool Stains & Scale Happen
Even clear, balanced water can contain trace amounts of metals and calcium. These enter your pool from:
-
Fill water (especially well water with high mineral content)
-
Algaecides and sanitizers (some contain copper)
-
Pool equipment (corrosion of heaters, plumbing, or fixtures)
-
Dust, dirt, and runoff that carry minerals into the pool
Left untreated, these metals and minerals oxidize or harden into visible stains and scale deposits. Not only do they detract from your pool’s appearance, but they also reduce circulation efficiency, shorten equipment life, and increase maintenance costs.
GLB Sequa-Sol addresses this problem at its source—by preventing metals and minerals from ever depositing in the first place.

How It Works
GLB Sequa-Sol is a chelating and sequestering agent. Once added to your pool water, it binds with dissolved metals and minerals, forming stable complexes that remain suspended in solution. This keeps them from reacting with chlorine or depositing on pool surfaces.
By controlling metals and minerals at a molecular level, Sequa-Sol ensures that your pool remains stain-free, scale-free, and easy to maintain.
