Hi all. I have two small spots where an allen wrench was left on a stair. There are two small spots, about the size of a pea, where it ate into the gel coat. Is there a way to repair this while water is in the pool? I could drain and fix if that's the only way. Any help would be much appreciated!
 
What do you mean "ate into the gel coat"?
If it is just a stain, put some vitamin C tablets in a sock and rub the spots, stain should go away.
Maybe post some pictures...

I used a brush on the spots and nothing happened. It looks like it went through the gel coat. I will try vitamin c and post pics tomorrow. I hope you are right and I get "pool stored"!
