So my pool construction is currently at a halt while I pick out plaster. I have read everything I can find on here and looked at every pic I can find as well. The problem I run into is, the more I read, the more conflicting information I get. And yes, I do understand the many variables that can effect the color such as lighting, surroundings etc. It just seems there is no consistent pattern even taking these variables into consideration.
I thought Stonescapes Tropics Blue Mini Pebble was perfect for what I'm trying to achieve but it turns out I may be wrong based on member comments and pics. I was thinking tropics blue would be a happy medium between tahoe blue and midnight blue giving me a darker blue turquoise water than the tahoe blue but not as dark and "lagoony" as midnight blue. But from what I'm reading, people are finding tropics blue to turn out lighter than tahoe blue and with less turquoise or green hues. I've also read about some choosing a "reverse tahoe blue." If I'm trying to achieve a darker blue/green water and maintain an overall gray plaster for my tanning ledge can anyone give me any suggestions? I like the idea of mini pebbles but I'm also open to quartzscapes as well. I'm including a pic of what I'm trying to achieve. Any help is greatly appreciated.
