    Thanks for the video and product info. This stuff is unbelievable, my pool hasn't looked this good since I put in the new liner. I went to Leslie's pool and asked about using it and they told me that it wouldn't work and said I would be wasting my money, and also, they did not have a solution for my problem. I went ahead and used the product as you said, I lowered the chlorine level to .0 and did a before and after pics, and the results were amazing. I brought the pics to Leslie's Pool and the person I spoke to about this, I showed him the pics and he was totally amazed. And wanted to know what brand I used.
    Thanks brother for the advice.

      Did you use metal Sequestrant after that?
      What you did do to stabilize the chemistry after ascorbic acid?

    @2sylvan Рік тому +24

    After you dissolve, the metal stains with the ascorbic acid, I would suggest that you add a sequestering agent because the metal is now in solution. Then you need to vacuum and backwash a few times to get rid of it permanently.

    if you have rust this worls also you can put in in like a sock and stick it on the rust spot for a few minutes and scrub with the sock it will remove the rust stain. not to mention those who are on well water you ever fill your pool than shock it and your water turns brown thats from oxodized iron in the water this stuff will also clear that brown water to blue as absorbic acid will disolve the oxodized iron in the water thats baking it look orange or brown in color. this has been a trick for years but pool companies dont want you to know because they rather sell you the expensize metoul out and stain removers asorbic acid is vitamin c thats all it is and its safe nothing in it will harm you you can jump right in that pool with no issue

    I tried this on the stains on my pool. This didn't work, but I also learned ascorbic acid has an effect on the chlorine levels, which immediately caused an algae bloom.

    Quick question, what causes this 'rust' stain? Which metal is affecting our pools like this? Thank YOU!

  • @cmarin5904
    @cmarin5904 Рік тому +8

    FANTASTIC! What do you need to do AFTER the vitamin C is sitting there? Does it need to be vacuumed up? Or it can just sit there? Does it get suspended? I read a suggestion about adding the metal sequestering product. The pool company had convinced me for 2 months that it's algae. They even did metal tests. I have scrubbed the pool silly - no improvement - only blisters! I lost a lot of sleep of my beautiful pool looking gross. Today, I gently tried to scrub a step with a chlorine tablet. Nothing. Then, after your video, I dropped 1 (just 1) vitamin C caplet (from the medicine chest!) and the step was sparkling clean!! Holy smoke! Thank YOU! Please add the words Vitamin C to your title and more people will get to your amazing video!

      I am curious to try this. I have about 20 -25 rusty nail marks and some stains that look like your in my deep end. I tried some crushed vitamin C on a few nail stains but did not seem to have any impact. Hopefully this will work.
      Does it help if you brush it in or will it eventually work its way though the entire pool?

    • @greggmgm
      @greggmgm  Рік тому

      @@Jwvalen69 I don’t think it will get the rusty nail stains but maybe now that I think about it I did have a rust stain on the bottom of my pool a small one and it did disappear. Let me know what happens.

    I just did the same to my pool here in St Pete. Mine was no where near that level to start but I used a considerably smaller amount like 1lb per 10,000 gallons. It worked but just took a lot longer. Do you find that using that much makes it takes longer to get the chemicals back in balance?

      Ascorbic acid neutralizes the chlorine in the pool. Also the reverse is true. Balance your pool and do this before adjusting chlorine levels.

After 48 hours my pool became green and could not see the bottom. I shocked it with 3 gallons of shock but it still green. Not sure what need to do next, any help appreciated!

    • @EGGINFOOLS
      @EGGINFOOLS Рік тому +2

      This removes metal stains and puts them back in the water from the walls and floor. After you use this you need to add chemicals to remove the metal in the pool water because its now suspended in the water for lack of better terms. Then vacuum and backwash. If you are using cal hypo shock your just adding metal back into the pool. If this doesn't move your stain it may not be a metal stain

    Alright guys can someone answer my question please***
    So when you put a lot of vitamin C in and it turns green what can you do to prevent it 100% from turning green? Drain the pool? Add metal sequestering agent? I see many people saying it turns pools green and that should’ve been a discussion in the video how to prevent or take care of that.
