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 12-colors - Black, Clear, Chocolate Brown, Competition Blue, Delta Blue, Sky Blue, Forest Green, Moss Green, Tan, Charcoal Gray, 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. 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.

Questions & Answers
what is the process in installing this product
The installation process for Pond Shield Epoxy Liner involves several key steps: 1. **Surface Preparation:** Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free of any debris, oils, or previous coatings. For concrete surfaces, use a cleaner and etcher to open the pores and promote adhesion. For metal surfaces, use a rust converter if necessary and sand any loose rust. Wood surfaces should be sanded smooth and any rotted areas replaced. 2. **Mixing:** Pond Shield is a two-part epoxy. Carefully mix the two parts according to the manufacturer's instructions. Accurate mixing is crucial for proper curing. 3. **Application:** Apply the mixed epoxy to the prepared surface using a brush, roller, or squeegee. A single coat is typically sufficient, but you can apply a second coat if desired after the first coat has become tack-free (usually within 1-4 hours depending on temperature and humidity). 4. **Curing:** Allow the epoxy to cure completely before filling the pond with water. Curing time can vary depending on temperature and humidity, but it's generally safe to wait 24 hours. Refer to the product instructions for specific curing times. 5. **Filling:** Once cured, fill the pond with water gradually. It's highly recommended to refer to the "Use and Care Manual" provided in the product details for detailed instructions and safety precautions.
