holes in above ground pool wall
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: http://www.patmedia.net/marklevinson.../poolwall.html |

A permanent fix that seals water tight is to wire brush the holes and patch with radiator leak epoxy - picked up at any auto parts store or walmart. |

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. |
