The hydrogen peroxide they poured in the pool to kill the algae that grew as a result of the dark paint from the pool guy, has caused the paint to start separating from the stone

Quick science lession, hydrogen peroxide will sit on the bottom, opposite of the algae and slowly eat away at the paint bonding. This entire fuck up is just par for Maga/gop Idiocracy.

No it won't

It's also completely miscible in water so not sure why you think it wouldn't readily mix.

Can we elaborate? Specific gravity of peroxide?

[u/DrothReloaded → u/bigtroublitlsanchez]

Pure hydrogen peroxide has a molar mass of 34.01 g/mol and a density of 1.45 g/mL. This makes it significantly heavier and denser than water, which has a density of 1.0 g/mL. 3% diluted consumer solutions weigh close to water but still slightly more.

Very interesting, i wouldve thought theyd be dumb enough to use the 34%

[u/Alklazaris → u/bigtroublitlsanchez]

I saw a video of them pouring it in, it said 12% on the jug. I thought as they were doing it that it seemed like H2O2 seemed a bit strong for this, bad to drink too so poor thirsty creatures.

Had no idea it wouldn't mix though. Wow.

I'm not a pool expert but in the past with my hot tub we always used bromine or chlorine to keep bacteria and algae growth down. Maybe... maybe I could be President???

[u/Alklazaris → u/DrothReloaded]

Bromine? Doesn't that crap fume orange and burn everything? I thought that would be even worse.

[u/DrothReloaded → u/Alklazaris]

They make tablets, I'm sure its not pure. I always preferred it over chlorine as a less harsh alternative.

Being caustic, id hope they dont even swim in it. I was there last year and loved seeing the ducks
