There's a couple of places in Pinoso, one I don't know the name of in Calle Emilio Castelar (the far end past Electroaldesa), there's also Materiales de Construccion Diego on the industrial estate.

Ref the pool, I suggest you give it a dose of both shock chlorine and some algicide, then put some flocculante in the skimmer bucket, and run the circulation overnight, to get rid of any fine particles the filter can't trap.

That will get you back to clear sparkling water.

Ah, is it an external paint finish? If so does it cover where old paint has peeled (after prep obviously)? 
Thanks -

No. Monocapa is just a plaster finish. 

It normally comes in two types; one for thin coats and one for thicker coats. It's not as dense as normal cola, and as a result is quite breathable. 

If you suffer from rising damp, and don't paint the monocapa, it will allow the damp to exit without lifting off the whole plaster coat.
