I've had staining from solar salt crystals (Morton...99.5% pure) too Evan. The first or second year I just dumped a couple bags in several spots without moving them around. The old liner was faded so it was pretty apparent but lightened over time. Before the forum crashed, I think Pat posted he had staining as well and uses salt blocks.
Next time you might try moving around with your brush in several places.
