Duct Tape can lose its adhesive properties when exposed to wet conditions, typically lasting only a few hours to a couple of days before it starts to degrade. The moisture can cause the adhesive to break down, leading to reduced stickiness and effectiveness. For best results, it's advisable to use duct tape in dry conditions or opt for waterproof tape for wet environments.

Can or should you use a suction cup to help pull an in-ground swimming pool liner into place?

During initial installation, it is best to do this with your hands, or even duct tape. If using duct tape, be sure not to leave the tape on for long. After filling with water, a suction cup or a good old fashion plunger (new!) work great. I've used a plunger on hundreds of liners. The only chance of damage I've seen is to the sand or still wet vermiculite bottom. For those impossible to move wrinkles, putting a small amount of water behind the liner can make the job much easier. I would recommend a professional for this though.
