    Need Help- SLAM/Shock and still can't get FC to hold

    I was in a similar situation a couple of weeks ago, waited for my kit and have gone so far and saved so much! It works if you work it. When my kit arrived I was overwhelmed but after a few tests and lots of advise it became clear. Good luck and hang in there!

    Re: Should I just give up? Can The rise was from 11 to 13 and then it stopped rising. Should I rinse and repeat? I can still see lots of tiny things floating .... I can see so much of the pool bottom now. It made a big difference but it is still a bit cloudy.
