Started the vinyl liner de-staining process... Some questions

[JWB]

I went ahead and used the algaecide when I thought I saw some "plant life" forming. I also added a half pound of AA and it's looking really good now. I'll start to raise the pH (and then chlorine) once I get it to about 7.2. Thanks for your reply.

Make sure you add enough metal free - I don't think 12 capfuls are enough in 27,000 gallons. If you don't have enough sequestering agent, the metals will start to fall out on the surface of the pool as soon as you raise the chlorine and ph.
