Identify the Rust Source

Determine if the rust is caused by metal pool components (ie: lights, ladders and or iron-stone in finish surface) or more fundamental the corrosion of reinforcement steel.

A sandy surface with a charred spot and a piece of metal debris. There is a black cord and a white flexible hose nearby, with water pooling around the hose.

Dewater pool

Dewater pool and ensure the pools hydrostatic valve is clear and the pool is stable. Conduct a thorough inspection to locate all areas where rust stains or cracks have appeared, as these indicate places where water has penetrated the concrete and corroded the reinforcement steel.

Remove Damaged Concrete

Grind to remove any loose or damaged concrete around the rusted steel. Expose the rusted steel completely allowing full access for cleaning and treatment. If the steel is severely corroded or has lost structural integrity, it may need to be cut out and replaced overlapping them with existing steel for structural support.
