    Maybe if I seal the grout this would help? I am sure the pool builder did not take the time to do it.

    Hi Denny can you tell us what the final outcome was, were you able to clean it up.

    Did you use a sealer on the grout and what was the brand, etc.

    Did you figure out what the cause was.

    I am having the same problem on a New pool with Glass Block Waterfall.

    Thanks FlaPool
