Rust Holes

In a blog from January 2016 Dan wrote:

“A small rust hole that’s located high up the pool’s wall is usually alright.In that case I will cut a small square of roofing tin or some kind of sheet metal and use duct tape to secure it in place over the area.”

I had this done by a local pool service and the hole no longer leaks, but nothing was done to fill the hole from the outside.  I still see the hole and when looking through it I see the metal patch that was put on the inside.

Is there some sort of filler (like a spackle for metal pool walls) that should be used or just leave the hole in the wall visible?

Hi Cweddie96,

There is not a filler that I’m aware most people leave the hole visible and that would be fine.

Thank You
