Mixing: Mix parts A and B thoroughly for at least 3 minutes using separate containers for each coat or a digital scale for single-coat application.

Application: Apply the first coat of the pond safe paint using a medium pile roller or brush. Wait 24 hours before applying the second coat.

Curing: Allow 5 days for complete curing before refilling your pond.

Cleaning equipment: When using spray equipment a thorough rinsing with cold water every hour will prevent a build up of cured material. Brushes and rollers should be washed with cold water and detergent and rinsed thoroughly in cold water.

Easy to use

I was so pleased with your product and ease of its application, that I would like to share photos of our finished water feature.
Many thanks for your assistance in choosing the right product.  I will recommend you to anyone who I know attempting this type of project.

★★★★★ Mr Sheldon B

Best product

For waterproofing any project that will hold animals or fish the best product I have found is A1 Pond Paint from Antel. It is completely safe once dried and that is what makes it worth the money. It is water based but sets like a resin. It's a two part paint so mix small batches at a time because it actually goes a long way. I have built two large grow beds for a large aquaponic system (Pictured below) and a few other bits and I still have about half a tin left.

★★★★★ Mr Noge M

Stunning

Just wanted to say thanks to Julian for his advice. Never painted a pond and his help was very much appreciated. Must say the difference before and after is stunning!
