A decorative and protective coating applied to the interior surfaces of swimming pools, typically composed of a cementitious mixture combined with small, colored aggregates, offers a visually appealing alternative to traditional plaster finishes. These aggregate materials, often glass beads or small pebbles, are embedded within the cement matrix, creating a textured surface. This specialized application enhances the aesthetic of a pool by providing a vibrant, multi-dimensional appearance.
The selection of this pool surface material presents several advantages, including increased durability compared to conventional plaster, resistance to staining and fading, and a unique, luxurious aesthetic. The embedded aggregates reflect light, creating a shimmering effect that enhances the overall pool ambiance. Historically, similar techniques using natural stone aggregates have been employed in various architectural applications, showcasing the enduring appeal of textured and visually rich surface treatments.
