The fill did not go. It leaked again. I've only got 2/3 of a kit left and I'm going to use all of it to re-coat the deep end. If it fails again this project will be pushed to the back burner and will not get finished until next winter.
Hang in there. I'd suggest giving the deep end a light sanding then wipe it down really well with something like acetone that doesn't leave a residue. Even body oil off of your hands could cause the pond armor not to bond IMHO>
