About This Product

Pond Shield is a non-toxic epoxy liner designed for the pond and water feature industry. Created to construction water features or ponds with a more designer, formal or natural look than rubber liners are able to offer with no more unsightly folds or creases. In addition, unlike rubber liners, Pond Shield is available in eight colors - Black, Clear, Competition Blue, Sky Blue, Forest Green, Tan, Gray 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. Easily applied and easy to maintain, 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 plants. Pond Shield offers both strength and flexibility in a coating, strength and flexibility that is tested from -78° F to 140° F. Pond Shield is an epoxy pond liner that has been specifically designed to bond to porous or abraded materials. With a tensile bond strength stronger than the internal strength of the concrete, your 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 and provides the best protection possible in a coating.

Would this product adhere to a previously epoxy painted pond without removing the existing epoxy?
ByAug 8, 2024
1 Answer | 
Answer This Question

Yes, but make sure to examine the previous epoxy. Remove any old epoxy that appears to be failing. Covering up a failing coating with a good coating will not fix the problem.

    Can this product stick to an elastomeric paint? I'm making a cold plunge and had rhino liner professional applied, but unfortunately leaks contrary to what I've been told and have read. The rhino liner is an polyurethane and polyurea hybrid.

    Answer This Question

    No, those types of coatings are made in a way so that things do not stick to them.

      Will this product hold up in a chlorinated swimming pool
      ByMay 5, 2022
      1 Answer | 
      Answer This Question

      Yes as long as the chlorine is dissolved before putting it into the pool. If you use tablets or pellets, put them in a floater device. Do not let them sit directly on the coating to dissolve.

        Can I apply this over a rock pond that was payed over a liner initially or do I have to disassemble everything first
        ByFeb 25, 2020
        1 Answer | 
        Answer This Question

        You should apply Pond Shield to a solid, constructed surface. If the coating is applied to a surface with any loose pieces, you'll likely have future leak issues. If you have any other questions, please contact us at 800-716-1545 or visit us online at www.pondarmor.com.

            I sprayed my pond with a silicone pond waterproofer. Unfortunately, it didn't do the trick. Will this product stick to that silicone coating?
            ByJun 3, 2019
            1 Answer | 
            Answer This Question

            No. That material is high susceptible to peeling and if you coat over it with anything else, when that rubber peels, everything will come off attached to it. It is best to remove all of that rubber before applying Pond Shield. If you have any further questions, please contact us toll free at 800-716-1545 or visit online at www.pondarmor.com.

              Really Amazing Product
              When used correctly, this product is amazing. It creates a beautiful and thick lining for a concrete pond--no more messy EPDM liner with bulky folds in the corners. Hooray! Yes, you have to carefully follow the manufacturer's instructions for this to work properly, but as long as you do that, it is flawless. Beyond that, my husband and I have never experienced better or more friendly customer service than we have from Butch at Pond Armor. He is patient and will invest his time to make sure all questions are answered. He stands behind the integrity of his product 100%. He has truly gone above and beyond to make sure our pond project is a success, and a safe home for our beloved koi fish.

                Used it for a wood shed floor. Really soaked in well...I think because of that it didn't cover as much area as advertised. Overall results were positive.

                Love the product. My husband has past and we are DIY’s-I was apprehensive to do it. Cause I was always the assistant-But the company walked me through every step of the way. Call as many times as you need. And I did… I’m an old grandma - and I did it!!!! I hate when people say I did it so you can to it too…, But your skill set is a willing heart if your got that, I believe you can do this And it looks professional. I did a 400 gallon cement fish pond
