TIPS FOR CHOOSING, WITH WHAT COLOR TO PAINT your pool glass.
What color do you want the water in your pool to look like?
Many people still think that blue is the only color in swimming pool paints, it is still the most used for swimming pools, given its association with water.
Nothing is further from reality, there are all kinds of tastes and people who seek to innovate through a wide variety of shades.
Years ago it was unthinkable to have a pool of red or pink, black, turquoise, green .....
The current situation is different and each pool has a different approach, depending on the landscaping that we have created around the pool, and the decorative sensation that we want to create.
To choose the color of the pool, we must always take into account the effects of both artificial and natural lighting that our pool has.
In fact, it is not the same to have an outdoor pool, where the sky is reflected, than to use an indoor pool in which the roof will visually influence the color itself.
The depth, the light and the surroundings directly affect the final tone of the water.
If the pool is in a space that receives a lot of sunlight, the color will be lighter and if it receives little light, the water will appear darker.
We must also take into account the elements that surround the pool, since they will have a direct relationship with the final tone.
For example, in swimming pools surrounded by vegetation we will see the water with a more greenish tone.
The spotlights also matter, since they give a colored tonality, so using them inside the pool can represent a very interesting visual attraction.
BASIC ASPECTS TO CONSIDER WHEN CHOOSING THE COLOR TO PAINT A POOL OR POOL
Normally the aim is to give it a concrete effect and make your pool look more.
Let us bear in mind that the reflection of the sky is closely related to color.
Reddish, orange and yellow tones are more easily absorbed by water than blue tones .
For that same reason, we almost always end up seeing a bluish tone in the water.
As you go deeper into the depth, the blue color becomes darker, (as less light penetrates the water), while if there is not a greater amount of water and it does not exceed 50 cm, then we perceive the opposite effect and we see transparent water.
Light, shadows, and surroundings also play a significant role. When there is a lot of sunlight, the color is lighter, while if it receives little light, the water will appear darker.

IF YOU PAINT THE POOL IN BLUE TONES
The color blue is generally associated with tranquility and relaxation and is very refreshing.
In it you will find a whole class of varieties that go from turquoise, light blue, indigo, ultramarine, blue ...
We recommend using this color in swimming pools in homes, hotels and homes where you want to give a pleasant feeling of comfort.
It should be noted that blue is usually the color most used in Pool Paint to give a refreshing touch of water tone.
Here it depends a lot on the range of color you use, although we suggest that you dare with a very intense hue in case you have a large pool, which provides depth, elegance and innovation.
IF YOU PAINT THE POOL IN SANDS OR BEIGS TONES
If you expand to a beige or sand tone, you will get the walls to reflect turquoise water.
A tone widely used for sand pools, which will give you a sensation of heavenly atmosphere.
To achieve a deeper green, go for slightly darker sand or beige tones.
This color also degrades very little in the sun, and has the advantage that if you have the background with a little settled earth, it is much less appreciated.
The disadvantage is that being a very light tone, the algae or dirt on the walls may stand out a little more than with other darker colors.
IF YOU PAINT THE POOL IN GRAY TONES
The greyish tones also try to hide the traces of dust that accumulate in the interiors of the pool, even imitating the idyllic ocean or lake style.
Its use is highly recommended for hotels. If you want a surprising effect thinking of obtaining a sea water color in your pool.
We recommend betting on pool paint in color or gray tones if you are looking for the tonality of seawater.
The mixture of gray and water achieve a harmonious blue, in balance with the environment!
IF YOU PAINT THE POOL BLACK
Black is undoubtedly a very complicated color when it comes to decoration, but it is true that it has very surprising aspects.
You will get a modern and elegant finishing touch, with a water tone with a mirror effect.
The pool painted black or very dark gray, such as anthracite, provides reflections of the landscape that surrounds the pool, in the water, achieving a unique finish.
Another advantage of painting the pool in black is that it attracts heat and, therefore, makes the pool temperature higher.
It is a color widely used when building artificial lakes for fish, with natural plants.
If you want to use spotlights inside the pools, this is not one of the colors that can give the worst results with artificial light.
Another drawback that the color black can have is that in the buoyancy zone, the lime of the water that can stay there, will be noticeable much more than in other lighter colors.
IF YOU PAINT THE POOL IN GREEN TONES
Of course, you can always try to find that natural pool feel by using a pool paint in shades of green.
Our advice is to use as much vegetation as possible around the pool for a more relaxing effect.
Depending on the intensity of the green color of the pool, you will achieve very different effects, from a natural lake effect with a slightly darker green, to a more paradisiacal appearance with a frosted green.
IF YOU PAINT YOUR POOL IN RED TONES
You can also paint the pool with paint or shades of red in order to achieve a striking effect and add warmth to the environment.
With this color you will achieve a transparent water, which will change its hue, depending on the state of the sky.
Depending on the amount of light, as well as the season of the year, light and time of day, you will find one or another sensation.
These color tones accept artificial light very well inside the pool, giving very different sensations depending on the lighting.
As a disadvantage, to say that these tones, if they are very intense, are the ones in which the loss of pigmentation or color of the paint due to the sun's rays is most noticeable.
