The sandblasted finish gives the marble a matte outdoor texture, while the grey movement works with modern pool decks, light porcelain pavers, marble pavers, and darker accent materials. Use this size when standard 12x24 pieces are too long for corners, skimmers, raised spas, curved edges, or detailed cap work.

Key Features

• Aegean Grey Marble with grey natural movement
• 12x12 compact format for detailed pool-edge layouts
• 2" (5CM) thickness for substantial coping and cap applications
• Single Bullnose profile for a rounded exposed edge
• Sandblasted finish for exterior pool and hardscape use

Common Uses

This coping is commonly used for pool coping, spa edges, short wall-cap runs, step returns, radius sections, and transitions where a shorter piece is easier to fit than a longer coping unit.

Care and Planning

For exterior pool projects, confirm layout, slope, drainage, grout or joint spacing, sealing plan, and current stock before installation. Natural marble can vary from piece to piece, so blending material from multiple crates during installation is recommended.

Required Exterior Marble Installation

STONELUX installation requirement: Do not install this marble coping, cap, or tread directly over sand, gravel, aggregate, stone dust, or soil. Permanently bond it to a properly prepared concrete or approved cementitious support with an exterior-rated wet-set mortar system or white polymer-modified mortar approved for natural stone.

Require full mortar coverage and plan slope, drainage, movement joints, waterproofing where applicable, and all transitions before work begins. Moisture moving through an unsuitable substrate or setting system can contribute to staining or efflorescence in marble and other light stone. Review LATICRETE guidance for installing natural stone and the CUSTOM marble installation bulletin with the project installer.

Sealing Exterior Marble

All exterior marble supplied by STONELUX must be sealed after installation and the setting system's required cure time. Use a sealer compatible with the marble, finish, exposure, and desired appearance. STONELUX recommends TERATONE 467 Color Enhancing Deep Penetrating Protector for compatible unfinished or sandblasted marble when a richer color and satin appearance are desired. Review the TERATONE manufacturer guidance, test a small inconspicuous area first, avoid overapplication, and follow all label directions. Sealer does not replace correct substrate preparation, drainage, waterproofing, or maintenance.
