Hey folks,
I've got an 18X36 Steel Walled Vinyl Lined pool here in Massachusetts. It currently has aluminum bullnose coping that I am replacing with track/cantilever coping to hold up the liner, and then stone coping on top.
I called up 2 paver companies to ask about the best installation method for the stone. One said mortar/concrete (lathe added to hold it). The other said just use adhesive and add mortar as a grout.
Which is the better or more proper method? Anything other instructions also? Like "First apply with x acid to properly clean surface"... Seems like there should be more.
Also, is there anything I should do to ensure that I can replace the liner later, or will that be fine?
Thanks!
