Pond Armor SKU-Clear-QT-R Non-Toxic Pond Shield Epoxy Paint, 1.5-Quart, Clear

I'll just add my comments to the general chorus of approval. After reading the other reviews, I was meticulous about following the instructions and had no bad experiences, nevertheless I may have marginally over-diluted the first coat (a splash too much alcohol), but it set without any problems. As others have said, they possibly over-estimate the coverage, it'd be very difficult I think to spread it thinly enough to make the 60 sq feet they claim, though in their defence they do include a sort of depth gauge to help with that. The area I had to cover, the base of an ornamental fountain was much less than that, around 30 sq ft, and that used up virtually the whole batch, although admittedly it ended up probably more thickly-coated than the recommendation and there was some excess which I pushed up the side walls. Also, I'd guess that most people will need to follow the instructions for 'rough' surfaces, possibly the only surface that would qualify as smooth would be some sort of polished stone or tile, my surface was very smooth concrete and even that seemed to limit the spreadability a little. But having said that, it's not particularly hard to work with, I used an old brush and that was able to push the stuff around, I was working on a flat surface so I just poured out a small amount then used the brush to spread it. The key is to work in manageable sections, don't mix too much at a time, but you can still cover a biggish flat area in the 30 minutes or so you have before the coating starts to set. I did my job with 2 separate mixes, but I reckon I could've done it with one. Fully coating more varied or uneven surfaces might be problematic, I think it could be done though, you'd just need to be even more careful about the amount you mix up. And in those cases you'd definitely need 2 coats - it'd be easy to miss nooks and crannies and any little air bubbles in the mixture seem to end up creating tiny spots that could need touching up on a thin coat. I got away with the need for that as my single coat ended up so thick! You need to be careful to avoid putting it where you don't want it, wiping it off is not easy - some drops I thought I'd adequately cleaned turned out to be still there, but one advantage of it being so thick is that it's hard to splash around, my downfall was once dropping the brush (doh!) and also having the stuff on my fingers and being forgetful what I touched. I got the worst of it off my hands with alcohol, but disposable latex gloves would have been a better way to work probably. The finish when set is shiny and tough, very slightly opaque (though that may have been a result of the extra thickness of the coat) and looks great either under water or out of it. It's not cheap, but in the end it did exactly what I wanted and I have every confidence it will last, I'd already wasted money and time on other products that weren't as good, so really had I used this stuff first, it would've been the most economical option.

My handyman husband gives this 2 thumb's up. Took several applications and time in between to dry but no leaks. I was worried that I would have to have that black plastic epoxy stuff so finding one that was truly clear was amazing. My fountain is back and ready for the summer again. pic #1 is prior to the repair; pic #2 is during repair; pic #3 after and running/holding water pic #4 what you get in the kit

Follow the instructions and you will be fine. Produces a very tough surface and makes cleaning the birdbath very easy.

I just applied it to my cement pond so this is about the application itself: 1. The hardest part is getting the bloody plastic ring off the can. You will know what I mean 2. Just mix as directed: 2 cups A, 1 cup B, 1/4 cup alcohol. Mixed easily. Don't know what all the fuzz is about. I bought some small containers and spatula from dollar store. Mark the container so you know how much to pour in. This is the amount that was easy to handle. 3. I just used a cheap Home Depot brush. Went on easily. You have more than 20 minutes. But my ambiance temp is about 55 F. Probably have less time if it is warmer out. 4. Wear protective gloves and your work coverall. Protect areas around it. There is no way to remove any stains. Good luck!

This Stuff is truly amazing. I have had some old concrete fountains and Bird baths that were damaged by water freezing in the water basins. After patching the concrete with mortar repair material, I mixed this suff up and coated the entire inner surface with the two part mix. It was tack free in about 2 hours, and ready for use as a new water tight fountain within 24 hours. I have used this for over 3 years now and it is great. Once it is cure, it is like a rubbery but hard plastic coating inside the fountain. it is Very durable. When Ordering make sure that you check the description carefully. The cans contain no information about the color on the label (or in the photo displayed) it is stenciled lightly on the lid. My first order I ordered what I thought was clear, and I recieved what I ordered, but it was Dark blue instead.

This is a safe product anyone can us, goes a long way. I have had more people stop at my house saying this is the most beautiful bird bath they have ever seen. If you are making anything this will be safe for animals, birds ect. The results are amazing..Looks like glass when dry. This is a picture of my bird bath I made..its one of a kind and you would be amazed of the stand I used that also looks like glass Enjoy

I ordered this to use in my bearded dragons enclosure that my husband built. It’s a bit intimidating the first time you use it. We used it in a 4x2x2 (120 gallons) enclosure and mixed enough to cover all 3 sides and the floor, as well as the wood on top we added to attach the lights. We still had a bit more left in the cans, honestly I could’ve used another layer of this but it’s covered pretty well aside from some small dots here and there. Make sure to work fast though, because it’ll dry quick! I wish I it were more affordable, I would’ve bought more to do another layer. But the materials we used was already safe, this was more of a precaution, better safe than sorry situation lol. I wish it was cheaper.. honestly I would’ve used something cheaper, but this was the only product I could use without having to wait weeks to be able to put my bearded dragon in it.

I purchased the clear version of the product. It is a sticky mess to work with, but I needed something non toxic for sealing the inside of my bird bath. I think it did a good job of making it water tight, but within a couple of days it yellowed, and so it it doesn't look at all like I expected. I sprinkled some river rock pebbles over the bottom to cover up the yellow, but I am pretty much disappointed that it did not stay clear.

The membrane of this product is outstanding, before Io used this product, it ha water leaks, after using this product, magic, no more water leaks! the cost was on the high side, but definitely worth it

Arrived damaged and one pot had leaked into the box but there was enough left for what we needed fortunately. Was a little tricky to work out the different mixes we needed for each coat but was easy to apply and worked well. We coated 2 metal containers we are using as water features and so far it's doing a great job. Would recommend although it is expensive.

Premeasured was a nice surprise. Easy to work with...I did put product in to slow down the whole process. Without a doubt I would buy this again.

Es un producto excelente, pero el único queja es que necesita dos capas y un 1.5 Quart solo cubre una capa de 4 M2 en nuestro caso.

Like all 2 part systems it's a bit of a pain to work with but it worked well and looks great. Time will tell how long it lasts.
