Pond Armor SKU-BLACK-GA Non-Toxic Pond Shield Epoxy Paint, 1.5-Gallon, Black, 192 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)

This product is tricky to use and must be used EXACTLY per the instructions on the label. No way can this product be used in a power sprayer. It's too thick a mixture and takes time to brush on whatever you are trying to use it on. Make no more mixture in full accordance with the instructions and ONLY make enough in a batch to use in approximately 10 - 15 minutes. It hardens (that's a good thing) to the point that you will need to throw away every brush you use. After the first batch, I hurried to the store and bought about 20 cheap ($1.00) brushes and the ones I used were absolutely not salvageable. All that said, I am extremely, extremely, extremely pleased with the results. Would buy it again in a heartbeat. Make sure as well that you use the recommended primer. Rubber gloves are recommended for use, but not absolutely required. Also get a supply of relatively small (no larger than a quart size) plastic containers to use during the product mixing process with denatured alcohol. It's different, but not that difficult to figure out and apply.

It's tough to spread but a bit of elbow grease does the job and a good roller. Use shoes you will throw out. I use this in my pond that had a big crack. I put cement in first and then this a week later the pond looks great and the black color makes the fish look better.

Upon arrival and opening the box I found a mess. They did put it in the small box in bags in another box and it was all over. The can was leaking and it was even leaking out of the bags into the box. I ordered on the 4-15-20 and got it on 4-21-20. I opened the box a day later when I got home from work and I found the mess in the boxes.i took pics but cant seem to upload them

The product worked well. Before you use it, be sure to read Landscapes by LZ's review which is under the listing for the 1.5 quart size. His review is an excellent guide. Particularly that you need 99% alcohol to thin the product.I screwed up applying this, which is entirely my fault. I applied the product over a very good pool/fountain coating from a company called Sanitred. I did NOT sand that finish with 60 grit sandpaper as the directions called for. Big mistake. The epoxy 'orange peeled' because the Sanitred product is so slick. I'm going to go with the finish as is because I need to recoat the rest of the fountain (there are six tubs and I only coated the two largest) in the fall before the winter freeze. At that time, I'll sand the two tubs I just did with 60 grit sandpaper and recoat the now-new coating with another coat of epoxy. The Sanitred has sealed the fountain. I just put on epoxy for UV protection of the Sanitred.

This was a second type of coating we put on our pond. The first kind peeled off shortly after applied. The pond armor covers great and is very durable. It’s not the easiest to apply, lots of steps to the process. But the finished product is worth it.

It sets up pretty fast, very messy, and what ever you do don’t get it on your skin, it’s very, very hard to get off. And after all the hard work of sealing my leaky fish pond somewhere it’s still leaking water level goes way down over night. But it looks beautiful!

Arrived on time and as described. Thank you.

It's epoxy. If you've never worked with epoxy before, have someone help you. It's a little tricky for the novice. Also, read the instructions: because you will almost certainly have to pre-treat your pond walls with muriatic acid, that was a nasty little surprise for us. That little factoid should be made more prominent in the advertising. Acid is never fun stuff to work with. And be prepared to trow away almost every tool and brush you use. This stuff gets everywhere and use gloves and a Tyvek suit, it will take up to a week for this to wear off your un-gloved hands. And it will never come off your clothes. That said, it works awesome.
