I’m having several issues and I want to get some feedback.

#1 - my coping doesn’t look good to me. I was expecting a much smoother finish

#2 - plaster has large “splotches”

#3 - 2 bubblers on tanning ledge are bubbling unevenly. They’re on the same valve. 1 does good and the other barely shows.

It’s a chlorine pool. Plaster was done and pool was filled at the end of March. Chlorine pool. Every level has been maintained in normal range since pool was filled and initial set up was complete.

Thank you in advance

Unable to determine smoothness of coping from the pictures. Possibly can you provide a closer picture?
Type of plaster installed, exposed aggregate or Marcite.
The bubbler that’s not performing as strong, is it the farthest away from the equipment?
I meant the edge isn’t smooth. Not the surface.

Not sure of the type of plaster

Yes, it’s further down the line. Any fix?
 
If the bubbler just started to perform poorly then it may have an obstruction, if this has been occurring since day one than possibly it was plumbed without an 18” dead end or looped to help assist with pressure buildup on the last jet.
As far as a fix, making the end jet orifice smaller is an option.
