We just had our pool replastered with Quartzscapes blue and I'm about a week into the brushing / break-in process, still working with the pool company's rep on the process. Since day one of refilling there has been white blotches all over that haven't come out with brushing. In addition, there is some areas of shadowing where the finish is especially rough, overall the pool looks very inconsistent and dirty because of the splotches. My pool rep says I need to wait longer to see if the spots come out but I'm not sure if that's a possibility? I've attached a few pics, its hard to see but I'm wondering if this is even remotely normal? They did a full chip out prior to replastering, then came back and replastered the whole pool in about 4 hours and had it filling with water about an hour later.

The rep is still responsible for all of that currently. She hasn’t handed over anything yet nor do I have testing results

OK -- best to wait until they complete their process. I would suggest you have your own proper test kit and start monitoring the water chemistry. Initial water chemistry can have long lasting effects on the quality of the plaster.
I maintained the pool prior to the replaster. K-2006 kit. I will start testing and maintaining at the end of this week again
