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.

Yes, but please follow the stock tank tutorial on the Pond Armor website. There is a link to it on the Instructions page.
Yes, just make sure everything is sanded, clean and dry.
Yes, it is a no VOC epoxy. Well, it can't be a non-toxic item (safe for fish and plants) and also kill algae (a plant) and bacteria (a living organism) at the same time, so no on that question. How long the UV stability lasts really depends on how much UV your area gets. I do not think it would need to be reapplied as much as just touched up over time.
No. If you have any other questions, please call us at 800-716-1545 or visit us online at www.pondarmor.com
You can sprinkle a little sand on the last wet coat you apply to give some nonskid. If you have any other questions, please call us at 800-716-1545 or visit us online at www.pondarmor.com.
No, not exactly. Mortar and typical thinset will not stick to plastic types of material. You need to use an acrylic thinset like Bostik Ultraset to get that to work. Please see the article on the Pond Armor website titled "How to use glazed tile in your pond". https://www.pondarmor.com/how-to-use-glazed-tile-in-your-pond/ It will explain how the process works.
I would not add it to Pond Shield as our coating is an encapsulating type of epoxy. Mixing sand into it would make the sand disappear for the most part. I would suggest that if you're looking for a non-skid property, sprinkle sand on top of the last wet coat before it sets up.
