Re: Vinyl Coping for overlap IG vinyl pool
For your future reference (when you replace the coping), we have two left-over 12-foot lengths of aluminum coping (bead liner) and lots of coping clips from when we built our pool. They're yours for whatever it would cost to ship them. They may not be worth the cost of shipping, but then again, they may. We couldn't stand the thought of taking perfectly good coping to the dump.

Re: Vinyl Coping for overlap IG vinyl pool
Scott, just a suggestion (no idea on feasability). Could you screw some wood sheathing to the existing coping to cover it? (Painted would probably look better) As for the puck circles - any chance you could patch them before they leak? If they're in the deep end and you don't scuba, this is probably a 'no-go (however, I recall that Poconos had a method of patching without the scuba gear, perhaps he'll see this) Sorry I couldn't be of more help. - Waste

Re: Vinyl Coping for overlap IG vinyl pool
Waste,
The wood might work...hadn't thought of that. Should be a pretty cheap fix too
One of the puck circles is probably fixable with a patch but the bigger one is 3foot circle so I don't know if that would be fixable. Most of the damage is in the middle but faded to nearly white the rest of the area. Puck must have been a new one on that spot!!! Both are in the deep end.
Thanks for your help. I'll post pictures if I fix it with wood!!
