A method for removing leaves, pieces of bark, surface scum and debris from a swimming pool, fountain or other impounded body of water comprises forming on the surface of the water in the pool an approximately monomolecular film of a nonionic autophobic liquid organic material having an HLB number of 10 of less, a boiling point of 170 DEG C. or higher and a bulk viscosity less than 1000 centistokes under conditions of use, which film pushes leaves, solids, semisolids, surface scum and debris to a preselected region of the pool, fountain or impounded body of water and compacts the foreign matter for easy removal.
