12. A bubbling pool can't reflect images

So, I imagine it was disturbing the look of it. Plus you can see the bubblers through the water, since the pool is so shallow.

But now the look of it, especially with chain link fences around it, is neuvo trailer trash. Several of my neighbors, about 10 mile down the road, have those fences surrounding their junk cars parked on their lawns.

Trump's contractor friend and neighbor used Rhino Pipeliner 5000. A two-component, rapid-curing elastomeric polyurea hybrid coating for pipes. I use it in my underground water tanks. It doesn't stand up to UV light. Spraying it on a shallow pool guarantees it will degenerate.
