I had my pool re-plastered with white plaster a week ago. The walls of the pool mostly all around have these lighter parts to them.

Is this normal?

The pool company that is handling the start up says they will fade over time as the pool fully cures. Since it's only been a week. Is this correct?

They are handing off the rest of the start up to me, and I'm worried I should bring something up with either the plaster company or the pool company about it before its too late.

Anything I should be doing in the mean time other than brushing 2x a day and making sure water is balanced?

Thanks.

Those are normal variations for hand trowled plaster.

See how your plaster develops as it cures.

Did they give you a startup guide to follow for the next 3 weeks?

Nothing specific, but I'm following the NPC guidelines.

Brushing twice a day, keeping water balanced, etc.

So I don't need to bring this up with the plaster company or pool company that started the pool?

Anything else specific I should be doing to help this get better?

Thanks.
