We're replacing our wooden deck with Composite and it looks like we need to take the Coping Rails off our pool in order to do that. But I can't figure out how to remove the coping cover caps. The screw is just spinning in place with what looks like a nut that is located inside the post. Its hard to take a picture, but the part is the one I attached.
Note that I don't seem to have the "top of the line" EW pool.
I also attached a picture from a few years ago when we painted the deck (with paint that failed, hence now ripping it up and doing composite). It looks like back then we never took the covers off but removed all the coping cover rails, and once you get one off you can push them to the side. But this time the pool is full of water and it wouldn't be safe to take more than one piece off at a time, so if there is a way to get these pieces off all the way I'd love to know how.
