QuoteI'd think that if there was a significant amount of oils and such in the water to make the shell slippery, then I'd think you're water clarity would be off, or at the very least see some oil slicks or rainbowing on the water surface? It could just be a well waxed shell, or the factory finish. Drewstar, you are a genious!!!!That makes sense...possibly Trixie didn't get the shell as clean as it should have been prior to the initial filling? That would explain why the problem is just in the nooks and crannies! Keeping the water's PH balance, chlorine levels, and everything else on that frickin' test strip has been a piece of cake!! Thanks so much!

QuoteQuoteIs it from Trixie's romance? What chems are you using? Slimy doesn't usually happen.Do you keep all the jets on when shocking or dosing with dichlor? Do you leave all the jets on if your tub clears it's lines?Vinny, are you my long lost cousin from New Jersy???Trixie pours 2 capfuls of Dichlor into a *Spiderman net, then she turns on all the jets and dips the net in and out of the water, (like dunking a tea bag) until all the dichlor has dissolved. The jets are left on for about 10 minutes. The last step is to dip a test strip in for testing.I'm about a foot taller than the movie version but I am Italian ... and I'm actually from NY originally too!2 capfulls may not be enough with the use of 3-4 times a day, you have a big tub. Do you know what that equals to in teaspoons/tablespoons?

Yep, naturally blonde hair will defintely turn green. And the best incubation temp for a lot of bacteria is about room teperature up to a little over 100. That is why tubs get gross without sanitation and you should not leave your leftovers out of the fridge.
Just wondering if the slimy feeling could be from the high alkalinity? :-/
