    Diamond Brite White Blotches?

    Thanks. I guess I'll wait until the end of the summer and see how it looks then. Do you know anything about using an acid wand? I was thinking of just trying to spot reduce the white blotches using one to help focus the acid when it needs to be added to the water. Is that a totally unrealistic...

    Diamond Brite White Blotches?

    CH = 380 CYA = 30 The only thing that seems to be out of range right now is the TA at about 60 and the salt around 3600. Hopefully the water splash-out today will resolve the salt issue. Guess I'll wait to do the acid wash until summer end. Last question, an additional acid wash on relatively...

    Diamond Brite White Blotches?

    Thanks for your quick input Jason and Rob! I can't be sure what the chemistry was like the first few weeks because I didn't know enough to check it regularly then, and I believed that the PB was actually handling it at this point. He basically told me not to worry and just brush it twice a day...

    Diamond Brite White Blotches?

    Hi there, I'm a newbie to this site but it seems like there is a lot of knowledge here which I'm hoping will help me. (Too bad I didn't know about this site before). Anyways, recently we had our pool totally remodeled to the point that it is now a brand new pool. We chose French Grey Diamond...
