If there is a film laying on the bottom of the pool it is most likely that the pool has clarifier or floculant put in it. If so let the pool settle for a day or two until all of the clarifier and contaminant has settled to the bottom then turn the filter to waste and gently vacuum the cloudy material on the bottom of the pool to waste do not put floculant through the filtration vac it to waste.

Can you suck up leaves off the bottom off a pool with a shop vac?

Yes you can. I recently used it to clean my Metal Frame Intex pool. It is 12' x 30" and you couldn't aatach a skimmer and good vaccum to the filter. So I had all the dead algae sitting on the bottom and the pool still looked green. I took the Shop Vac out and cleaned the bottom of the pool with it. Just remember you can do one pass and the housing will fill with water and make sure the drain plug is removed as well as the filter.

Slick vinyl pool?

Usually this is a cleaning problem that concrete pools do not have. The bacteria that builds up is more aparent in vinyl pools and makes them slick. There are solutions and one is to make sure that you use the "shock" treatment for your pool. Another is to use the proper chlorine additive. The third is surprising, but effective... put some copper in the bottom of the pool. Pennies are effective and will help keep the "slime" from building up. If your pool is small enough, scrub the sides and bottom of the pool with a brush to clean the "slime" off and allow the chemicals to work.
