It took two men 4 days to chip away the epoxy paint and clean out hollow spots (with water pressure and hatchets, yes, Boy Scout style hatchets) They lost money on that detail. As I suspected the tile and coping was bad too. Tile was replaced and coping pulled out and repaired. Total cost now $6,500. Water is now clear and balanced
New questions
1. I ran pool vac too soon and scuffed up steps with black marks from vac head. I realized error and bought a vinyl pool vac head but not sure how to remove the skid marks.
2. Calcium hardness is a factor. I measure 120 and read that it should be double that number. Any advice. FC=5, PH=7.8, TA=80
3. Hard to hold FC steady without stabilizer. When can I add CY?
