Painting a concrete pool.

Hi!
This is my first post, so I start with a small introduction.
My name is Mats and lives in Sweden where I'm at the moment building a concrete pool approx. 40m2.
My plan is to paint the pool to begin with to keep the cost down a little.
I guess due to our weather we need other types of paint but I'm curious what systems you paint your pools with and what it suppose to stand against.

Regards Mats

isn't it possible to post pics in this forum? I can't see how to do it.

There are special pools paints. I think some are rubberized and some have epoxy too in them.

I also heared that after you paint the concrete you cannot take off the paint again without a lot of work and chemistry.

Intresting subject and I wonder it myself.
