We just bought a Coleman 18 by 48 above ground pool from a store? We are wanting to do the BBB method but wanted to know how to get started and how much of each of the products to purchase. Any advice would be helpful as we are first-time Pool owners.

IMPORTANT: Probably 10% of Bestway / Coleman pools have warranty problems. Unlike Intex, Bestway does not honor warranties well. The warranty that matters is the one from the retailer. Get your pool UP and RUNNING BEFORE that warranty, or return policy expires.
Good luck!
