According to a new report, Atlantic Industrial Coatings found that workers failed to apply enough primer in some areas and that two materials used in the liner system were incompatible. So no, the damage didn’t “happen because of vandalism.” It was the result of a botched renovation!

Contractor blames its own repairs, not vandals, for Reflecting Pool failure
Documents, which have not previously been reported, make clear that the contractor found problems in the design and the execution of the renovation.

The truth finally comes out. The contractor behind the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool renovation says the peeling and blistering of the pool’s new blue liner was caused by mistakes made during the repair itself.
