New liner help

[CarlD]

I'm no expert on this but I do know that getting the bottom level, even, and the right depth is important. Two tricks I've seen is using wet sand (or dust) and using 2' x 2' pieces of 1/2" plywood to step on when doing the final leveling and smoothing, and never putting a foot on the bottom. Use the plywood when standing on the liner as well to protect the base.

The shop-vac is necessary.

Other than that, others will have to help you.

Ok finally going to start this have liner and new soft feet foam to install caps off but liner still in I am off on weds & thurs so baring rain I should be able to get the liner out this week

[CarlD]

Yeah, the rain's been a killer for me too. I've bought tarps just in case, to reduce re-grading time.

New liner in and filled some small wrinkles but I'm guessing they will work their way out on their own. 6 bottles of 8.25% in to keep at shock level starting to clear up nicely. It was a struggle but it's done hopefully for the last time.

Oh, I know THAT feeling: "This is the LAST time I'm doing this!"

Took about 3 days to get crystal clear, let it get down to 4ppm chlorine & added stabilizer need to do 1 more vacuum to clear the bottom of some sediment from the water, but got in it today to stir the dirt & let the filter clean some if it, water temp 68 but once you were in it was nice. Now if mother nature could get me a week or so of 80's to warm it up a bit more will be party time.
