Hi Everyone, as per @kimkats suggestion, attached are the pictures of my recently replastered pool.

This was NPT StoneScapes Mini Pebbles Midnight Blue with a Touch of Glass (10% glass) - Pool Finishes: Touch of Glass | NPTpool.com

This is StoneScapes Tropics Blue with non-specific amount of glass bead.
It’s been about 3 months since fill. The shelf is
16”, play pool depth is 3’8”-5’-4’.

I'm just coming across your post & this color is pretty. Did it end up changing to green at all? I'm at the point trying to decide on my finish. Thanks!

No, the color stayed pretty much the same. It has a green tint to it but it reminds me more of a shade of green in a tropical lagoon or the Colorado River from the top of the Grand Canyon, not of algae or anything like that. It nice, no one here regrets the choice. I like it because it does go with all of the browns here in Arizona but still shows nice contrast. And I think I have just about the only pool in our neighborhood that isn't PebbleSheen blue! I will try to remember to get another daytime shot of it next time we have the solar cover off and post it here.

Edit: it was super windy today so no one wanted to swim today, but I will post a relatively recent picture. Mid April.... You can see the blue of the water with the green tint of the plaster.. I still am happy we went that way...

Here is my just completed pool. Stonescapes Aqua White with Abalone shell hand cast.

Since I had been asked for it, this is a picture from yesterday when we had the cover off with no one in it, a rare occurrence. I don't know if the tanning shelf and depth question was for me or not, but the shallow end with a small ledge if in the front of the picture, the 6' deep end is to the rear right.

This is Stonescapes Caribbean Blue completed a month ago (please excuse the area around the pool, our landscaper has been backed up for weeks)

Brand new blue surf...(about a week ago) in almost full sun.

Wet Edge's Primera Stone - Sapphire treasure. Full sun and a close up of what it looks like with shade.

This is the Premix Marbletite Tahiti with the Mystic Ice added. All of these pictures were taken on sunny days. The sundeck is 9 inches. The deepest part is in the middle at 5 foot and the outer edges of the pool are 3.5 foot and 4 foot. I have included pictures for Days 7, 13 and 31. I have also added a picture of the pool plaster on the step on the sundeck, so you can see the color of the stones from the Mystic Ice.

This color is amazing. Most pictures I've seen of this finish look more green.. is this the Puerto Rico blend or regular stonescapes?

I believe it is just the regular stonescapes.

What is the color of your coping? It’s pretty.

This is Quartzscapes Sky Blue. We didn't add anything. this was a standard option from our PB. The sunshelf is 9in deep, 3.6 and the middle is 5.6 and the end of the pool is 4.6. It's kinda a cloudy morning when these were taken.

Hello! Is that Sundek? Of so, what color?

Thank you, we used tan luder stone with a bullnose edge for the coping.
