That would work, but more cost and effort than a little cement.

The "underwater" claim is spurious. Any epoxy would do. Kind of like how
they label bottles of ordinary aspirin as just for arthritis.




Richard-

Yes many epoxies will do service underwater but only some are
formulated for application underwater. Usually moisture will interfere
with the cure of the epoxy.

Other methods of repair will require OP to drawn down the pool level.

With true underwater epoxy OP can do the repair with water in place.
