    Default Stubborn waterline ring

    I acquired a brown waterline ring over the winter that will not go away. I scrubbed it away with a pad and a diluted bleach agent and it has come back within 2 weeks with little pool use. I might add that I got some stains from tree flowers that ascorbic acid removes ( so ordered some bulk). So I am looking for suggestions to remove the waterline stain.

    Fiberglass pool
    7000 gallons
    FC 5
    PH 7.2
    TA 150 (am lowering)
    CYA 50
    Phosphates 500
    CH 120

    I am using the BBB method and have been for over 1 year. The water is crystal clear no odor

    I also add a capful of Pool perfect and phos free each week.

    Thanks for the help

    I usually use baking soda paste and a kitchen scrubber sponge on mine, others have suggested using Magic Erasers....
