I have this white residue building up on the rock wall grout, on our 1 year old pool. I was assuming it's calcium deposits, but I can't remove with anything so far. It's present on both retaining wall and non-retaining wall side of pool, so I don't think it's anything seeping through.

8:1 muriatic acid/water does nothing, no bubbling. Brushing with stainless brush does nothing. This stuff is hard!

My CSI is -0.18

Any suggestion appreciated!
