For the Polyquat 60 brand you would have to go to a pool store or order it online. You may be able to find algaecide with 60% Polyetheline Dichloride as the active ingredient in big box hardware stores.

What is the actual brand for the genuine Polyquat 60 that everyone always talks about? ProTeam??

Just stumbled across this BOGO deal offered online by Leslie's for Polyquat. It comes out to 14.99 a Quart as opposed to-as an example-Kem-Tek on Amazon which is going for $21.46. Use Hello as a discount code at checkout for free shipping. If you spend more than $50.00, the discount code will also take $10.00 off the total order! I don't know when this special will expire.

Is there a difference between that one and the ProTeam brand?

That is a very good deal for PolyQuat 60. It is non foaming, non metallic.

No, there is no difference between Leslie's Algae Control, which contains 60% Polyquat, and ProTeam brand.

I went to Leslie's and they matched the online price

Fantastic! I purchased a total of 4, and with the discount code, I got free shipping and an additional $10.00 off. Each quart cost $12.50.....

I have found a Polyquat 40 instead of 60 at an online store. Is that going to be good enough to use to close my pool this fall?

I believe that is just the concentration and strength. You may need more. Check the contents to see how many gallons the quart treats. Poly 60 treats up to 20,000 for 1 quart. You are merely looking to stall algae until the winter. So even 1 quart of Poly 60 would be sufficient.

The brand that I see most use and myself is Kem Tek 60%, I usually get it on amazon in the low $20 range.
I have seen this year at Wal-Mart, purchased one but have not looked that close to ingrediants so maybe someone else can help.
They have what's called hth brand 4 in 1 Algae Guard 60

I'm buying the Kem Tek 60% off amazon tomorrow. I've heard good things about this brand.
