Another pool question...

Rainbow rock or cool deck?

[mjhaverkamp]

Rainbow rock will last forever, is it Kool Deck or spray deck ? I would definitely not use Kool Deck, if it is not applied perfect under perfect conditions there is a good chance that it will delaminate after a few years. Spray deck is a polymer modified cement and will stay down if applied correctly, it is a little easier on the feet but not that much. Basically boils down to what look you want, I have rainbow rock, it is the most popular in that price range around here.

This. Rainbow pea gravel is least maintenance. Spray deck should be re-sealed every 5 years or so
