We just had our pool remodeled with new tile and plaster/pebble (Wet Edge Pearl Matrix). Wet Edge recommends Jack's Magic Blue as the sequesterant agent, but I can't find it locally. Does anyone have a recommendation on a comparable product I could find at a local shop or should order Jack's to arrive on Monday or Tuesday? The pool will be full sometime tomorrow afternoon. Thanks!

HTH's will work just fine. You'll just need a little more of it.

Scott Thanks for the quick reply. I've been calling the local Wal-Mart, Ace Hardware, etc., trying to find HTH Metal Control, but so far no go. I may be stuck ordering something online and overnighting it for Tuesday... My only concern is I do have a fair amount of copper plumbing in the original equipment that will remain for the next month or two. At least it's not bright white plaster. Before:  After:

Back to OP's question......Why do you have the need for a sequestrant. Do you know you fill water has metal content?
