  Eclipse™ Colored Quartz Aggregate Specifications and Warranty

Natural Quartz aggregates are acid insoluble, abrasion resistant and extremely durable. When quartz is used as a replacement to the marble sand in swimming pool mortars, it is known to improve the durability and abrasion resistance of the finish.

Eclipse Colored Quartz Aggregates, available in a wide range of colors and sizes, allow you to create a colored finish and pool water reflection which blends in with the surroundings or stands out in dramatic contrast, resulting in a unique poolscape environment. Eclipse Colored Aggregates are used to make a statement – to create that subtle or “one-of-a-kind” designer look. You will enjoy the rich, colorful, luxurious look of Eclipse whether viewed up close or at a distance.

Eclipse Colored Quartz is made by a Ceramic Colorfusion™ process that permanently bonds the acid resistant mineral pigments to the quartz aggregate.
