I bought a pool from a friend and discovered that it has a LG hole in the liner. Everything else is good but I am wondering if I can purchase a new liner for it, and if so where?
replacement liner for an 18 x 18 steel frame pool

Most liners cannot be removed and replaced. So far I don't know of anyone that has been successful due to liner shrinkage or becoming brittle.
What kind of pool so we can help you pick out a new liner.

I found some on amazon:
https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_4_25?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=coleman+pool+replacement+liner&sprefix=coleman+pool+replacement+%2Caps%2C179&crid=23QGHN04LN0RJ&rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Acoleman+pool+replacement+liner
The shipping is high OUCH! I will let you figure out which one is for your pool.
Good luck!

How large is the hole and where is it located? You may be able to patch it. Often replacing the liner on metal frame pools are as expensive as buying a new pool.
Thank you

It on the bottom. I agree patching would be the best, husband is just afraid that it would be a never end ordeal. I think just buying a new pool is the way to go.

I would try the patch if the hole is not too big. Do two patches. Make sure to make it round. One just over the size of the hole and another one bigger over that one. See how it goes!

Just to give you a comparison, we had a mishap 5yrs ago with our pool. My better half knocked a stake in the pool that I carelessly placed on the top rail.
I weighed the options of patching the hole (a clean 1/2" hole) or replacing the liner. Decided to at least try the patch approach first (had nothing to lose trying). Did it EXACTLY as kimkats described (small then larger). It's been 5yrs, but alas, I'm going to have to do it again because it is beginning to leak again.
First thing! You can see how clear the looks thanks to TFP! But, it's lifting a bit, so patch again. It has DEFINETLY been worth the cost of a good patch kit as opposed to a new liner. If this patch lasts as long as the first, I'm ahead financially.
Just wanted to say sometimes it's worth a shot as kimkats said. Good Luck

Thank you for sharing. I'm gonna show this to my husband because he was dead set against it. But seeing this he just might change his mind
