Pebble Sheen

[asanchez1983]

Hello, can you guys please look at my pool and help me decide what color pebble sheen to go with based on pool design and surroundings such as pavers and colors. I’m open to all colors. I have went back and forth from light to dark spectrum and back. I would like some others opinions. Thank you in advance, Alex

Welcome to TFP!

Choosing a finish is such a tough decision, and really subjective. I went with a dark pebble finish. I love the color variations it shows, but after a few years, I do see some mottling and lighter spots that really bug me. If I were to do it again, I would stick with lighter more traditional color.

That aside, browse some the posts here. Lots of options...

What color pebble finish and brand did you get if you don’t mind me asking?

Black marble Pebble-Tec. Our "theme" was kinda of natural rustic mountain stream look.

Admittedly, many of my stains were caused by dumping solid forms of chlorine in the pool before I found TFP. You have the unique opportunity to start things right. Do yourself a favor and spend as much time learning how to care for your pool as you are researching finishes. You'll thank me later

Wow! Pool looks good, I like the theme, design, and finish. I will definitely take your advice on learning about pool care. Thank you for you time and response. I think we’re leaning toward either aqua blue, or cool blue, or arctic white pebble sheen.
