    Thanks, guys for the help. It took 14 drops before it was red and did not increase in redness. The pool is cloudy, but is clearing. I'm assuming once the CYA stablizes the chlorine and it quit evaporates during the day that it will clear. Ideas?

    If the 14th drop turned it red and the 15th didn't change the color then you have 140 ppm TA which is fine for a vinyl pool.
