We had a patch on the floor of our above ground pool that the previous owner had put on, which had started to come loose. Last fall we closed the pool and put the winter cover on, but then after a few days the water level went WAY down... Ended up taking the over off, but didn't see the exact leak spot, and it was too cold to try to put a patch in then. So, we left the pool with a couple of inches of water in it thru the winter. This spring, we tried a regular patch kit, but had a hard time getting enough adhesive spread across the surface so that it would stick and that the edges wouldn't lift. We bought this thinking it would be much like the Gorilla Tape we have used before, which worked excellent in other applications, but we weren't sure how it would adhere under a couple inches of water. And with this tape, the adhesive is all the way to the edge, so I didn't have to worry about that. Just cut to size, peel off the backing, and press down onto the surface. We left a couple of bricks on top of it to help hold it down and make sure it sticks. Seems to be holding for now. Only bad thing is that the adhesive or the plastic isn't truly clear, it had a yellow tinge to it and I don't know how it will fair in the sunlight, but at least it is doing it's job. Anyone I've talked to about doing a new liner this year has said they're 12-16 weeks out just waiting for a liner. I started calling in March, trying to find someone to replace the liner and some other parts, while they're at it, but everyone gave me the same story. I wasn't about to wait for the water to warm up just to drain it all to replace the liner and fill it again. Hoping this lasts for the season until I can get someone to do the liner this fall or next spring. Also, this is definitely a thick layer of adhesive on a plastic sheet. Much thicker than normal tape or gorilla tape. Read more
