Hi TFPeers!
I have a plan to repair the liner for an in-ground pool and would like to run it by those with more experience than I have. I have read many of the forums posts and further reading materials here. We would not have ever done as well as we have for the past several years without these resources. We are very grateful.
The return had been patched with silicone by the previous owner and held for several years. We suspected a leak at this return, and I removed the excess silicone and return face plate to discover what you can see in the attached picture.
My repair plan is as follows.
1. Release the liner from the above track enough to gain access behind the liner. The return is not that far down the pool wall.
2. Use the Boxer Adhesives Pool Repair products to glue large patches on each side of the vinyl liner (Welcome to Boxer Adhesives The Finest Name in Vinyl Adhesives).
3. The outcome should produce a solid-hole-free vinyl liner surface where one would proceed as though he were installing a return and face plate to a new liner.
My initial question is about the Boxer Adhesives products. They seem to be produced and marketed to owners with above-ground pools. Our pool is an in-ground pool. What would be the difference, if any?
Thanks in advance!
