Preface: I know this isn't a preferred method to deal with bad plaster installation, but it's a precursor for me for ultimately demanding a chip-out and replaster.
My pool was finished Oct 31, 2017. Within a week or two I noticed the plaster had white "splotchy" spots and uneven coloring. The PB stated it was an install issue and I'd need an acid wash.
To date, the "whiteness" has spread all over the pool and I have noticable white foot prints in different locations.
I'm scheduled for the acid treatment in August. My main concern is the pool being terribly out-of-wack chemical wise after the treatment. What questions should I ask and what specific instructions should I give the technicians to make sure I'm squared away afterwards? What should I watch out for to make sure they don't ruin anything?
Also, I want to add borates to my pool. Should I wait until after the treatment?
