Re: Added 2# of Ascorbic Acid tonight
gerri, keep the filter running 24/7 - put a skimmer sock on the skimmer - it will help filter out the cloudiness. Keep the ph low, and let the continuing filtering water with all the sequesterant and aa do it's job. When your water is clear, and you still have some staining, you can take a very fine sand paper, like a pf 400 and sand the stains. The guys that came to re-gelcoat the top of my pool used this to clean the waterline. It won't hurt anymore than using a cleaner that has some abrasives in it. I tried it on a small stain that I had and it took it right off. Don't lose hope, I know it must be sooooo frustrating. If the water doesn't seem to be getting any clearer in a couple of days - turn the filter off at night and vacuum to waste any sediment that falls to the bottom. I'm rooting for you!
