    Repair coping for Polymer wall pool
    I have a 24' round inground pool where the coping is molded to the Polymer walls.The coping pieces are cracked through the top in several spots on each coping section.The pool was built in the late 70's or early 80's. I'm the 3rd owner and have no literature on the pool.Just wondering if anyone knows of repair overlay coping or any type of repair coping is available-they used to make an aluminum product back in the 80's but no one local knows of anything now. Structurally the pool is good-it's more of an appearance thing. Thank you for any info.

    If you are unable to find any of the correct material, something you might be able to use is edge moulding. You can find it at auto parts, or rv supplies. They use a push-on type rubber moulding on door edges, etc. Just a thought.

    Oh crud! I assume that you have taken a sample of it to the local pool supplies to try and match it up. That is probably the only way you'll find one to work. Is there a manufacturer's name perhaps underneath of one of the brackets or something?

    I know if I were trying to fix that for somebody, I would take it in to my wholesale suppliers and see if they could match it.

    Good Luck.
    Al
