## Description

Pond Shield is a non-toxic epoxy liner, made in the U.S.A designed for the pond and water feature industry. It is used to waterproof and seal water features or ponds with a more designer, formal or natural look than rubber liners. Using Pond Shield epoxy means no more unsightly folds or creases. In addition, unlike rubber liners, there are eleven Standard colors available - Black, Charcoal Gray, Chocolate Brown, Clear, Competition Blue, Delta Blue, Gray, Moss Green, Sky Blue, Tan and White. Pond Shield is used for waterproofing structured surfaces found in water features such as Koi ponds, pools, fountains, aquariums, salt water tanks, hydroponics, streams, waterfalls, reflecting pools, mini lakes, holding tanks, etc. It is easily applied and easy to maintain and for most applications, a single coat application is all that is needed for proper coverage. In addition, your pond will be virtually maintenance free with a surface that algae can be easily wiped off of and is safe for fish (and other wildlife) and plants. Pond Shield offers both strength and flexibility in a coating in fact, strength and flexibility that is tested from -78 Degree F to 140 Degree F. Pond Shield is an epoxy pond liner that has been specifically designed to bond to porous or abraded materials such as concrete, wood, stone, most metals (treated and non-treated), brick, most ridged plastics, tile and many more. With a tensile bond strength stronger than the internal strength of the concrete, a single coat of Pond Shield epoxy will stick to what you apply it to. Over time, hairline cracks can form in concrete, mortar or grout joints. Being flexible, Pond Shield resists mimic cracking in these areas and provides the best protection possible in a coating.

Review: Great product for what I what I needed in a pinch - This is probably not an intended use for the product, but I was at a crossroads when updating my basement bathroom: I needed to either switch my shower pan or coat it in a type of black water-friendly epoxy. I also had a situation where I had bare wood, PVC joints, and some cracks that needed to be sealed. Because of this and because I already had the surround tiled, I opted to try this product after quite a bit of research. Worst thing: I'm out $60 and move forward with changing out the pan. To prep, I cleaned all applicable surfaces extensively with bleach. Then I applied PVC primer on all the plastic surfaces. The product is thick, so taping off areas with painters tape worked very well for clean lines. I opted to use 90% isopropyl that I had around... I'm in Minnesota, and just about the only places I could find that had 99% were certain hardware stores if they carried epoxy type paint products, and they were at least in gallon sizes and expensive. You could probably order smaller/cheaper 99% isopropyl online along with this paint, but at the time I was taking on this project it wasn't really an option because of the pandemic. 90% worked fine for me, it probably would have been better to use 99% for better paint mixture and finish. Working with the product wasn't too bad. I made sure to work in batches using disposable cups, making about 8oz at a time. What I loved about this paint was that it had little to no odor; if anything it faintly smelled like ball point pen ink. The epoxy also didn't eat up any of my cheap foam brushes or rollers along the way. Clean up was also easy with the isopropyl. All these factors did not apply with other DIY epoxy kits I've tried, which was huge because I was working in a poorly ventilated bathroom and had pets that were sensitive to fumes. Drying time took a little longer than expected and the finish occasionally left bubbles of unset epoxy. I attribute this to not using better isopropyl and possibly having mix ratios slightly off. It actually worked in my favor because the product dries glossy and having texture from the bubbles was a good safety measure. Also because my situation called for black paint and was in low light, I had no problems with an inconsistent finish. If a perfect finish is desired, I don't think this paint would be capable of that nor is it really intended for that. I've been using the shower regularly with no complications for a few months. I've dropped things on it many times and it all still holds up. It also appears to have sealed my wood, gaps and cracks very well, preventing mildew from getting in. Even if the finish becomes compromised over time, I'll have no problem touching it up. I'm so glad I came across this!
Review: Good for my winter KOI tank - I have a winter KOI tank in my garage. It is a 72 gallon tank. I was worried that the plastic might leach into the water and harm my KOI that I am trying to overwinter. My 6 KOI are doing great in the tank. This was fairly easy to roll on the inside of the tank. I did prep by roughing up the surface of the plastic tank and following all directions. No flaking or cracking so far (after 3 months). So far I am happy. It is a bit messy to work with, but you just need to know that up front and prep for it. This seems to be a very good product. I would purchase it again. Update after 3 months. Still great. No peeling and my KOI are doing fine. Very happy with this purchase!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I bought a few for large koi pond project tried a pail as per intrctions for mixing and iut set in 10 mins how to prevent early setting of mixture**
A: Because Pond Shield is exothermic, heat will effect the cure time.  if it is hot outside, the coating will want to cure quicker.  The mistake most people will make though is they will mix the Pond Shield and then leave it in the container they mixed it in.  Get it out of that container and either pour it into a large flat paint pan or right onto the floor of the water feature you are working on.  Call us at 800-716-1545 if you need further assistance.Pond Armor

**Q: how much area does 1.5 quarts cover?**
A: This depends a little bit on the type of surface. If you have a smooth surface I would say coverage is about 54 square foot. If the surface is porous it will be about 35-40 square foot. this is from my experience with the product.

**Q: 1) if in places it is slightly damp can it still be applied 2) will it work on flag stones with concrete in between the stones.**
A: No, surface to be applied to must be dry and clean...vacuum clean. NO loose material, chip away any loose material and anything that appears like it will be coming loose. If area is wet or damp, may be use a drier or blower to dry the area to be sealed. I would not use it on flag stone either unless you have a small area (I assume you are not walking on this flagstone, it's on a side wall or something cause the flag stone will use up a lot of Pond Armor. Pond Armor clear will put a "wet look" "shinny" finish on the flag stone. If that kind of a finish look is OK with you and the cost won't break the bank, go for it. A ruff surface like flag stone and concrete will require more Pond Armor than smooth surfaces. If you have a big area, I would only work with a quart of Pond Armor at a time on a ruff surface like that until you can see how well the Pond Armor gets applied. And remember, if you only apply Pond Armor to some of the flag stone, the remaining untreated stones will look totally different. Also, you may even have to put 2-3 coats on just because the Flag Stone is so ruff that it may look like you got it all, but you will see you missed some after it dries. (Unless your really good getting it all at 1 coat) Hope this helps. Stuff works!

**Q: Is this product considered “food safe”?  Will it leach into soil used for edible plants?**
A: I do not know the specific answer to your question. But I used it to coat the sides and bottom of my Koi pond and it is safe for fish and plants in a pond.  This suggests it would be safe for edible plants as well.  You may want to check with the seller.  I contacted them and they provided help.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great stuff!
*by T***Y on November 7, 2019*

After building a concrete fountain in the summer of 2018 I knew I would have to coat the inside with something or it would look like pea soup. After searching a bit I came across pond armor. I decided to give it a try after reading reviews, and watching videos. If you follow the instructions you'll end up with a nice finished product. I first sanded the stucco to make sure the i had a smooth and even surface to bond to. Next I gave the surface a wash with muriatic acid to really open it up. After everything dried for a few days I began mixing the two parts together. The whole process is fairly straight forward if you do the prep work before hand. I used a small roller, and a disposable brush. I did a coat in the morning and one later in the day, sanding between coats. Pond armor does have that chemical smell to it, but any coating that lasts over time does. I waited two days after finishing to add water, and a week to add some goldfish. I'm writing this review over a year after using pond armor. The product has done exactly what it claimed to, and has withstood the seasons of NC. The gloss black goes with everything. I will be using this product again when I build a plywood aquarium this winter.
