Good Morning!
We had a new pool put in this summer and we had some trouble getting the chemicals right. They are all good now but I have noticed on my grey fiberglass steps when the water level gets low they are white. I think its calcium scaling but my pool builder says he has never seen this happen before on the steps. I am not sure but I have a feeling they are like that all the way to the bottom. Stain remover will not do anything for the buildup. I mixed half and half muriatic acid and water and took a sponge and tested a spot. It removed a little but not much. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do to get this off. I attached a photo so you can see it. I just hate to have a brand new pool and the steps look like this.
Thanks!!
Tanya
