    New PebbleSheen French Gray Finish - Splotchy/Uneven - normal?

    Thank you Dirk. The explanation makes a great deal of sense and I do think we are dealing with an issue more closely related to what you described. We're going to see how things play out over the next couple of weeks and will be back with either more questions or the results.

    Pebbletec choice/desperate

    We just had French Gray installed. It is a beautiful darker finish. You are welcome to look at our pool if you do come up to NE FL. We are on Amelia Island. We do have some splotchiness in our finish right now, but if it dissipates, it will be perfect.

    Sunstone Pearl CL. Industries, advice needed!

    Benwestpool - Did you have any luck finding pictures of Grey Reef Pearl or even the Crystalstones Gray Harbor? If you did, please share. If you chose the Grey Reef Pearl finish, please post pics when your pool is done.

    Hi from Fern Beach - looking to learn and see pebble finish pics

    Hi! My husband and I just bought a home in with a 27 year old kidney shaped pool and round elevated hot tub. It needs a lot of love to be brought into the 21st century, so we've decided to embark upon a new finish, waterline tile, pool deck, equipment and screened enclosure. We're excited to...
