It can be any color you may desire. The final coating on a fiberglass laminate is called "gel coat", and it is available in 40 different colors. Several unusual colors have been chosen by our customers over the past 11 years, such as pink, black, and bubble gum. But more than 95% of the finish coats, on vinyl liner to fiberglass conversions, are white or light blue.
