I have an above ground pool that was so swampy, there was a dead squirrel in it and we didn't notice it.
I will say,, you can memorize the youtube of the SLAM process and it still won't prepare you.
You will come here asking advice, thankfully the smarties don't get tired of the same questions about the process.
When you are ready to scream, you will notice that the pool is turning a murkey grey blue.
When your about ready to poke your eyes out and take an axe to the side of the pool, it teases you with little hints like the test water looking clearer.
When you think your almost done, you run out of some chemical that no one in the area has so you worry that in the 2 days it takes to get to you, your going to end up with the swamp again.
You get the chemical and you see that the numbers are indeed wonkey but you diligently clean the pool and vacum every stinking day for weeks or what seems like
F O R E V E R .
Then when you absolutely can't stand to test the pool and you swear the bleach has done such a number on your hands because of all the scrubbing and testing ,you will indeed be done and the over night chlorine test will prove it.
lol, it has been maddening to say the least and I am very thankful to all the smarties that helped me stay sane with the the SLAM process.
