slippery steps

[us7sail]

We are in the process of blding a 18x36 vinyl lined pool with steps in the corner. Using block, but could have been done with concrete forms they are just a lot of extra weight. My father in law has done this many times. The www.poolwarehouse.com, where I bought my kit, has a some info on this option. Its at the bottom of the page, on the "brochure" tab ; inground pool section. I was also concerend about the possible slickness of the liner on the steps, but the suggestion by waste sound great. chris

What I'm suggesting is making the steps from gunite and plaster attaching the vinyl around the steps the same as the fiberglass steps, not covering them. That way you get a nice nonslick step that you can customize to your liking, and you don't need the vinyl liner modified to fit over the steps.
