    Can I use stainless hardware to use as a keeper for my pool liner that is loose.

    You might be right. I wouldn't be surprised looking at other things the previous owners did around the house and yard. The mistake I can see with the liner is the walls of the pool and liner don't match. Or, there is too much sand under the liner making it loose at the bead.

    Well, keeping the kids safe means screwing the liner to the wall. We had the liner fall last year and it could have been a disaster if the kids were in the pool. I was in there when it happened and the current almost pulled me thru the bottom of the wall. As far as a 10-32 hole around the...

    Can I use stainless hardware to use as a keeper for my pool liner that is loose.

    Didn't get a change to photo the pool today, but will try tomorrow. Yes my pool has the kind of latch where you can jam pennies in there to stop it from floating loose. And I did have about $6 worth of pennies jammed around it before using the liner lock (I believe the pennies held better)...

    Thanks! Good to hear I actually did something right. I lurked around on here for the past week trying to learn something. I took your advise, went swimming with my boy. It was sunny 80 degrees, water was a little cold, but we had fun. Thanks i'll work on that.

    FC = 3 CC = 0 TC = 3 TA = 150 CYA = 40 PH = 7.8 Basic test kit showed TC at 2-4 which agrees with the other test. This is my first time using this kit. Unfortunately I've already spent a small fortune at the pool store and used about half of the supplies. I decided to go with TFP so I could...
