I have a cracks in the blue tile that is at the water line. It seems like a simple repair for pool putty. But the tiles are blue and I'd like to use blue pool putty. But I am not seeing any that comes in blue. Is there a blue pool putty product? Or is there a simple way for me to take white putty and color it blue? Many thanks!!!

If its epoxy based you should be able to use resin pigment to mix into your batch. You can buy it at a marine supply store or online by the ounce. Just takes a drop and you can mix white and blue to get the color you want.

Thanks very much. I will give that a shot!
 
Thx. My crack is pretty big (1/4" wide) and I think a putty will seal better. I have picked up some pool putty and some blue pigment powder. I'll post once I have some results.
 
I used dry artist pigment and it worked well with white pool putty.

I used dry artist pigment and it worked well with white pool putty. Where the crack was very narrow I would have had to grinder it wider to fill it, but I am very happy with the result. Thanks to all who responded. This forum is a great resource.
