The
color that you select for your pool will affect the pool's overall appearance and will set the stage for your backyard.
Standard colors with several fiberglass manufacturers include
white and light blue gel coat, both of which give the pool a light blue appearance. The
white gel coat can seem a little bright on a sunny day, whereas the light blue tones that brightness down a little bit. Some manufacturers offer various colors of
gel coat and even offer it in custom colors.
Specialty colors are also available with some fiberglass manufacturers. There are basically three different color processes available: gel coat, Granicoat®, and hand mixtures.
Gel coat finishes are nice if you like a solid color and hand mixtures give the surface of your pool depth and dimension. Granicoat® is a product that is available in kitchen countertops and was modified for swimming pools. The finish is a flat color and very much resembles old school kitchen countertops.
Hand mixtures come in a variety of colors, and high end manufacturers can custom design a specific color just for you.
Standard colors available with hand mixed colors include different shades of blue, brown, and grey. The darker the mixture, the darker your pool will look. The brown mixtures tend to make the water look aquamarine with hints of green, which is nice if you are trying to give your backyard a natural look. The grey finishes tend to make the water look a muted federal blue, which works well with modern and contemporary backyards. Your pool's
color will not look exactly the same all of the time; it depends a lot on the cloud coverage. The bottom line is figure out what general color you want your water to look like, then choose a finish and
color that will complement your backyard.
