Is this the product to use if there is a leak in the tile area of the pool wall?

Yes, my husband used it on our tile in a pool we have on our roof. He seems to think it stopped the leak. As a previous person said, he did grind it out first. We do live in the tropics so we don't have cold weather issues.

The description does not say that. I think if you live under climate where the temperature do not drop under the freezing temperature it will work.

I don't think so, this is just a rubber protector and conditioner. It helps to keep rubber from drying out. Sounds like you might be beyond that. But you might give it a try if the leak is not to bad.

Hi James - not sure I can say. I just used mine to fix a spa leak, which worked for some time, but is now leaking again, so will need to reapply at the end of the season again. However, if you look at all the Amazon answers & reviews, and the ones on the company websites, I seem to recall seeing your very situation and question discussed by others who were looking to fix their pools. So I believe your answer is to be found in those discussions. Good luck!

I would follow the suggestion regarding the clear gorilla tape. That's the best stuff I've ever ran across.It patched the kids pool when nothing else worked. Best of luck.

I read the comments on another website about this product, and there was an individual that had used this product for a pool that had a vinyl liner. This did work to stop the leaks. It may be a waste of money, but I'm getting ready to order this myself, as we've got numerous tiny holes in the vinyl liner of our pool. Since I don't have enough money right now to replace the pool, I'm going to take my chances and hope this works!

Have had no problem with leakage so far on the two units purchased around last June (2013) for my large pool. I suspect you received a defective unit, or it was damaged somehow compromising the seals. Suggest you send back for replacement if possible.

I think spray adhesive will work. I used duct tape over the top of the pool wall and then the j-hook liner went over that. My pool has been up for two summers and I haven't had any problems. And I really like the feeling of it. Hard to explain, it just feels like my liner is less likely to rip because of the extra padding.

Some did drip I to the pool without issue. I used two coats to make sure I had my bases covered. In doing so, I found areas I had missed as well as areas that had been thoroughly covered. I used a roller brush to apply it and a sponge around the rim of the coping. I have travertine coping. I am in Texas so I will have to apply it again towards the end of the season as it does not last!

this product works anywhere a seal is required and works well. Reasonably priced compared to the minuscule amount the pool places are trying to sell you.

We did not end up using our kit like this one. We used a patch from a pool store with there glue that they recommended. It has worked great so far. There patch was thicker.

Depends where the leak is ( to find it, try mixing bubble bath suds at different spots) If on the vinyl part, buy a vinyl patch kit which you can find at a pool place or Im sure Lowes, home depot,etc, After you find the hole, clean and dry, then follow patch kit info. Hope this helps

I drained my hot tub before applying. I would think you could use it on a small leak. I would let the plastic-aid set up a little longer before applying or it may run since it is actively leaking.

We only used it on the wall of our pool. I think it prevents condensation on the pool wall and serves as insulation. You need a spray adhesive to apply it.

doubtful. this stuff only works for a short time, then the leak will re-develop.Especially, if leak is at an increased pressure point.

The product info says you can. My pool leaked on a corner seam about 8 inches up from the bottom on a 54" deep soft side. I used goggles and hung up side down to attempt this patch. As soon as the patch covered with glue hit the water it rolled tight like a pencil. My second attempt I was able to keep the patch from rolling but getting to the bottom of the pool without hands proved a challenge. I had my wife hold me under and got it in place. The leak slowed but did not stop. It was near season end so drained the pool and patched both inside and out before putting it away for winter. Come spring we bought a new soft side ultra frame and gave the old one away. I was told that patch did work. The product info says you can.

I used this grout on pool tiles at the water level. With the water level low I re-grouted some tiles that came loose. After drying for 24 hours, I brought the pool level up to the tiles. Worked great!
