    Default Re: Draining Gunite Pool

    The pool guy was painting some rocks around the pool and got a TON of paint in it. I don't know how to get it out. The cartridge filter stops up every 15-30 minutes full of the paint and I've been doing this for a week now without any luck in getting the paint out.

    By the way: this was after he got too much sand in it. I got advice on using the sand filter bag on the 380 to get all the sand/dirt out and I was in the process of doing this when he came back to finalize the paint on the rocks and got it in the pool. My water is now literally brown, the color of the rocks.
