I don't know where you get them, but there are plastic bead available, I believe there is a product that is ground nut shells. Both of these are less damaging to the the surface the paint is on.
I just looked and there are a lot of options. You would have to look in your area for a supplier of sand blasting supplies.

Is rubber swimming pool paint better then the epoxy refinish?
It is all in the preparation. Why do you want to paint a pool?????Reply to above: WHY PAINT A POOL? Because it's cheaper than re-plastering or otherwise re-surfacing your pool. Because it protects the concrete and/or plaster or fiberglass surface under the paint--if it is a quality paint. Because it revives the original beauty of your pool. Because it helps the surface resist algae and chemical attack on your pool surface-- especially so for a high-gloss premium pool paint. Because painting your pool allows you to modernize it, change color, add personal emblems or decals on the bottom. Lots of reasons to paint your pool. Check out frequently asked pool painting questions at http://www.sausea.com/faq.htm BY THE WAY, GOLDEN POOL PAINT RULE: Rubber-base over rubber-base, epoxy over epoxy, vinyl over vinyl. For best results, do NOT put different types over each other! If your paint type is failing, sandblast and start over with a good quality pool paint.

How do you get flaking epoxy off bottom of cement pool?
From my experience as an inground cement pool owner for 7 years. Drain it and have it sandblasted and repaint with a quality marine/pool paint. I would not recommend the paint sold at your local pool supply store. My pool is 20 x 40 and hold 40,000 gallons of water. The paint I use is from a local company that really doesn't sell to the general public. It costs me around $500 for the paint. I can paint the pool myself. The sandblasting should be done by a professional and should cost anywhere between $1,000 and $1,500. Other than that, I know of no other solution to remove paint chipping from the bottom. I had the same problem and it was causing my water to get very cloudy. I know a lot more about the paint part if you need more info and want to email me.
How do you determine what kind of paint is on your swimming pool?
First you have to determine if is in fact a painted pool. If it is a plaster pool then usually there is no paint unless it was painted because of age and damaged plaster. You most likely do not want to paint a plaster pool - have it acid washed to clean plaster. Not sure how to determine what type paint. You would have to have the paint chips anaylized to determine if it is a chlorinated base paint or epoxy paint. Ken
What is the best paint to use on a concrete pool if you have a salt system paint keeps coming off on your feet and hands or where ever you touch have sandblasted and painted twice now?
It is obvious you have previously used an epoxy pool paint. Epoxies are good and they do last. Only negative is that they are not UV resistant and chalking is a natural phenomenon. Next time try a better quality and a light colour No need to shot blast again.

ArmorGuard will NEVER peel, flake, or chalk. and is PERMANENT. This is truly the last coating you will ever need. go to www.ecosmartepoxysystems.com for more information or call 1-888-Eco-Epoxy
How do you get rid of the bubbles in a newly painted pool with water in it without hurting the paint job?
Blisters in the paint job? Poor preparation was the result of that. Drain the pool, re-prep the pool walls etc and repaint. Hmm, why did you paint the pool? Was it painted before?
