    Calling Grey Plaster Owners - aka Medium Grey, French Grey, Tahoe Blue

    Getting replastered and am told the Tahoe Blue color is also known by the names in the title. My question is about tile decorations set into the plaster. I've looked at pools with the grey plaster, and they look darker, which I like. When we went to a tile store to look at tiles, we saw some...

    So, there are no 6" models that are serviceable and can come apart?

    I just sent those pics of my lights to a replastering company. They said those are 6" spa lights, not standard 10" pool lights. I asked how he could tell, and he said he used the 3" tile that you can see in one of the pics as reference. Would you all agree with that? If so, looks like I need...

    The waste of time and effort is what would bother me most. Thank you.

    I'm not sure what you mean by "adventurous". Could you please elaborate here? Do you know if this ColorSpash bulb fits the Amerilite housing (or whatever you call it)?

    Thank you! So, the Amerilites are a possibility for me then. OK, so where do I get info on replacement bulbs? They don't seem easy to locate on Pentair's site. Edit: Oops, looks like I found replacement bulbs, but not LED. Will LED, in fact, work in those housings without having to modify my...

    That makes sense. I guess they wouldn't be crushed and deformed by the elements if they haven't been installed. I live near Sacramento, where we never "close" our pools, and my pool is smack-dab in the middle of our backyard, so it's an attention-getter. I also like the ambience of colored...

    Thanks for that. I forgot to mention that the lights stopped working one by one over time. Never took them out to see why because when I attempted to take the housings out of their niches, it looked like the screws and where the screws go were so old I was afraid I might not be able to get them...
