2. Inspect the Pool Walls: Carefully inspect the pool walls for any signs of damage or roughness. Smooth out any imperfections and repair any cracks or chips using a suitable pool wall repair kit.
3. Level the Pool Floor: Ensure that the pool floor is level and free from any bumps or unevenness. Use a leveling tool or a long straight edge to check the surface. If needed, add a layer of sand or a pool floor padding material to create a smooth, even base.

Turning on the vacuum, gently pull the liner into place, working out any wrinkles. The shop vac will hold the wrinkles from reappearing once they are worked out.
