Above ground pool skimmer help...

[johnb62]

Well my pool is full and after the last couple of days it is plenty warm.

Problem is I have a crack in my skimmer and it is leaking. Anybody know of something you could use to repair cracks to wet plastic? I really do not want to empty a foot of water out of my pool if I do not have to.

BTW Duct tape did not work

Thanks!

It runs longways down the bottom (round portion) of the skimmer.

Go to Lowe's by the plumbing supplies. Ask an associate for a 2 part epoxy putty that comes in a clear "cigar" type tube. It works for underwater applications and sets in minutes. It's just like Billy Mays "mighty putty", but its only like $5 at Lowe's or Menards.
