Did they try to talk you out of sand and to use vermiculite instead? That should have clued me that they were clueless about how to work the sand.

You're not THAT far from me. The original installer came down from Buffalo because he also installed the pool. The warranty contractor was NY/NJ local.

It was just a replacement,take the old one out smooth out my sand and drop it in, no extra's just the vinyl. Tried a few night shot's maybe you can see better, the brush in the pic's is for scale and it is 3'. Thanks again

OK. I posted your pictures. I'm not sure what to make of them.

A black liner with no pattern is going to make such surface defects more visible. But since it's a purely visual defect, rather than a functional one, I imagine that the contract you have with your contractor is likely to determine your options.

I don't know if that's acceptable work in your area, or not. I do know -- purely from having swum in a number of vinyl pools -- that such surface irregularities are common in my are. But you don't see them, usually, with a patterned liner.
