Hi,

I have inherited an Esther Williams above ground pool. It is around
10-12 years old. Everything on the pool was in great shape except for
the bottom tracks (I ordered new ones) and I recently noticed dozens
of pinhead sized holes near the bottom 6 inches of the aluminum wall.
The previous owner had dirt up against the wall. I cannot afford to
replace the wall. What would be the best way to approach repairing
this?

Thanks,
Mark

Here is a link to a picture of the holes in the wall:

What did the inside of the pool look like?
I'd be concerned that the walls might be too weak to continue
using.

My Esther Williams is about the same age.
I had to replace the liner this year (second time).
I had some minor surface flaking on the inside but nowhere
near a hole.
The outside is like new.

Epoxy might work as the other poster suggested.
