Hi all, this is my first time posting here, hope I'm doing it right!
I have a vinyl-lined inground pool. Our house was a foreclosure so we don't know tons about the pool, but we hired someone to help with maintenance last year when when we moved in and he said the pool liner was about two years old.
Unfortunately, the house was rented and then went into foreclosure and during that time the pool was ignored. As a result, the PVC (I'm assuming it is PVC) that borders the pool is discolored (rusty and gray in some spots) and there's a lot of dirt in the crevices of the pool liner (where the PVC and liner meet up).
I've had some luck with a magic eraser, but I want to clean it up better. Have any suggestions? I'm going to get out there with bleach tomorrow and try to clean out the crevices with a toothbrush. As for the staining on the PVC, I am wondering if painting would not be best.
Bleach doesn't seem to do the trick. But I'm not sure how to go about such a project since I can't use spray paint or any paint that is toxic due to having to apply it so close to the pool water. Ideas? Thanks!
Also anyone have luck cleaning the underside of a diving board?
