I have a fiberglass pool and I am constantly battling with iron stains. It is not impossible to remove the stains. I get brown stains in my pool and I treat them with jacks magic stain solution #1. Check out their website. They show different pictures of different types of stains. The stuff does remove the stains quickly, but it is expensive. Hope this helps.

Pool StainingI am not an endorser of products until I have tried them and see for myself that they work. So I will guarantee you that this recommendation will work for you.First go to www.jacksmagic.com. You will need to first identify what type of stain that you have first. This is done with a "Stain ID Kit". Once you determine the type of stain with the kit-I cannot stress enough use the kit-no guessing of what you think it might be-call Jacks Magic and let them guide you with which stain removing product to use. You may have a local dealer in your area that carries these products and may have the stain kit. Still go to the website and note the contact information. If you follow Jack's instructions you will not waste time or money on useless products. I have attending his stain specialist training and was truly impressed at the dedication level of their staff.
P.S. I am not affiliated in any way with Jack's Magic products. Just a firm believer that his products work due to I have used them previously.
good luck to you!!

∙ 15y agoBlack stains in a fiberglass pool occur when the gel coat begins to break down and is known as "cobalting". The stains start small (pencil point) and grow rapidly. There is no chemical to remove the effects of cobalt. Simultaineously, algae will be able to attach itself to the gel coat, as it transforms from non-porous to porous. Staining will also occur and eventually fiberglass will become exposed. This transition normally occurs in about 20 years in a factory built fiberglass pool, and about 15 years in a fiberglass laminate that was applied to a concrete or gunite swimming pool. Of course, in both instances, the timing depends upon the quality and the thickness of the swimming pool gel coat that was used. The solution is relatively easy and definitely inexpensive. Simply remove (by sanding or sand-blasting) the existing gel coat and replace it with new swimming pool gel coat.

How do you get brown stains off a pool wall?
Use a natural ascorbic acid based pool product to clean stains on walls in the pool. Once applied, this product almost immediately removes most stains. Most pool stains come from metals in the water. Test your fill water to make sure it doesn't contain high concentrations of metals, if you fill your pool from sources other than city water.

A galvanized steel wall is superior to plywood. A fiberglass (polymer) wall is far superior to both. Good luck with your pool.
Are concrete or steel walls better for an inground swimming pool?
Steel walls are currently the lowest quality wall for a swimming pool, with the exception of Cyprus wood (if still available). Concrete (not gunite) is superior to any other wall, but a pool with concrete walls generally also has a concrete bottom. In other words, it is a concrete swimming pool. The most popular wall today for vinyl liner pools is fiberglass and, with the possible exception of concrete, is the best possible choice.

How can you get rid of brownish green and dark stains on wall have treated the pool for copper but it hasn't worked how can you get the stains off without emptying the pool marbelite pool?
If the stains are more than a few hours old you will have to drain the pool to do an acid wash. Another alternative is to do what is called in the industry a "no-dran" acid wash - and yes the spelling is correct there because it is the manufacurer's way to spell it. The product is put out by United Chemical Co in California. Possibly in Simi Valley. Can be found in most major pool stores at times. You must follow all the instructions on the container or it will not work properly. You also must know when to stop the process. It is best for a professional to do this type of work. If trained properly he will know when to react to the different chemical situations that are involved.
How do you determine if brown staining on a plaster epoxy painted pool wall is a mineral problem or some kind of an algae problem?
Brown staining on pool walls and fixtures is usually from a high iron content in the water. The chemical reaction with newly added fill water and the addition of chlorine shortly after will cause a fallout of this metal. I have witnessed this years ago after adding a gallon o f chlor. to a newly filled pool and just watched the brown cloud form and fill the pool to a chocolate brown color. There are chelating agents to prevent this from happening. k
