I think what you are refering to is called mottling. It can be caused by over working the marcite as it is applied. It can also be caused by improperly mixing the finishing product.

Has anyone had a pebble tec pool surface cause splinters in your feet?

Pebble finishing for a pool's surface has its perks in terms of increasing the surface life of the pool finish, but indeed it can cause bruises; However, I haven't heard anyone getting a splinter from Pebbled pool surface. That can only be possible if your pool is unmaintained causing twigs or anything that can cause a splinter to enter the pool unnoticed.

Which pool surface is best for heat retention?

Are you looking for solar covers? Above ground or inground pool? ANSW:: If you are talking about the pool shell and finish itself and not the surface of the water then the darker the finish the better. Black, in So. Calif, is and has been a current favorite. But you have to deal with that "lagoon" look. There are people who do not like that look. A disadvantage to the black is that if you are not dilligent with pool chemistry you can end up with black algae....it is hard to see in a black finished pool. Another is that, again, if you are not right on with chemicals you can end up with a nearly white pool within a few years. It could be calcium buildup ( white to gray look - aggressive water - high pH ) . It could be, again, aggressive water ( low pH ) sometimes loosing the cobalt in the plaster or "butter" coat - degrading the plaster to a point where the color simply is dissolved and goes int suspension. k

Is draining a pool an option for treating black algae After two weeks of rainy weather and no chemical treatments our in ground pool is consumed with black algae. It is pitch black from the surface?

Black algae is the hardest to get rid of However be very carefull when it comes to emtying your pool especialy after rain as the ground water around your pool could forse it to start floating. which would ruin your pool altogether. Let me tell you this - in 2 weeks you could not get that much black algae. It took you months of neglect to harvest this crop of algae. I think you pool plaster could be no worse than as if you left the pool dry for the entire summer. If th estatement above thinks that emptying the pool during rainy weather is going to be bad for your pool ( and it will) then what you have spurned here is just as serious. Take some lessons on how to maintain a pool and look for a pool contractor who can remove all the plaster in your pool and start over again. Black algae is not your only problem. As an inexperienced person with a pool you can not see the problems that have developed along with the black algae. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk. Shame on you.


How do you get the square footage surface area of a pool?

If it is a rectangular pool, then multiply the length by the width. If it is a circular pool then the surface area = (Pi/4)*(diameter^2)
