Pool Surface Notes
The surface is slightly abrasive and not as smooth or as new and will allow more organic matter to grow as a result of the slightly abrasive surface, The pool surface has discoloration throughout due to improper water balance over time
Pool Surface Additional Notes

The plaster surface is in good to fair condition there is some pitting throughout the pool approximately 10 to 50% of the pool especially around the return in lets on the bottom of the pool (return floor jets) and some of the corners , shallow end, and step areas. Otherwise I would expect this plastered to last another 7 to 15 years without issue if well maintained.
