We just had our new cocktail pool plastered and acid washed in the quartzscapes cappuccino 1.5 days ago, it is a very natural looking watercolor, a light tint of green… We are concerned however that there are some areas of the pool bottom and some spots on the tanning ledge and stairs that are not quite even, sort of blotchy. Not sure what to ask the pool builder, as we hope this will change over time, thinking the plaster cures and hardens and that will change?

Welcome to TFP.

It is unlikely to change. Plaster is a hand applied and mixed material that will have some natural variations.

If you complain to your builder/plasterer they will off to do some form of an acid wash which will remove a layer of plaster, make your plaster more porous, and reduce it's longevity. You really don;t want them to do that.
