TRUSTED BY INDUSTRY LEADERS:
Step 1: Prepare the Surface
Use a wet/dry vacuum to remove any remaining loose parts or remaining water. Ensure the surface is completely dry before proceeding.
Step 2: Reinforce Vulnerable Areas
Apply Liquid Rubber Waterproof Sealant to these areas using a brush or roller.
While the sealant is still wet, embed pre-cut Geo-Textile into the sealant, ensuring there are no wrinkles or air bubbles.
Apply a second layer of Waterproof Sealant over the Geo-Textile for added durability.
Step 3: Apply 2 Coats of Waterproof Sealant to the Entire Surface
Allow the first coat to dry for 24 hours before applying a second coat.
Aim for a dry-film thickness of 1.5 - 2mm (approximately 2 litres per square meter).
Step 4: Cure Before Refilling
Longer curing times are recommended in colder weather.

Pond Waterproofing FAQs
Can I apply Liquid Rubber over existing coatings or sealants?
For the best waterproofing results, apply Liquid Rubber to a clean, dry surface. Remove loose or peeling coatings, silicone, rust scale, and other contaminants first. This ensures maximum adhesion and long term leak protection.
What tools and equipment do I need to waterproof my Pond?
Application is simple. Use a paintbrush, roller (included in our kits), or a spray machine for larger Ponds. Basic safety gear such as gloves is recommended, and keep a suitable cleaner handy for spills and tool cleanup.
What is the best way to prepare the surface for application?
Use a power washer to clean the surface. The surface must be clean, dry, and free of debris, mold, and other contaminants.
Do I need to use the rapid cure spray?
The Rapid Cure Spray is used for the Waterproof Sealant to instantly set the product. It is fully optional but we recommend using it for best results.
What colour is the Waterproof Sealant?
The Waterproof Sealant appears brown when wet but turns black when fully cured.
What are the drying and curing times?
Allow each coat of Liquid Rubber waterproof sealant to cure for 12 to 24 hours before re-coating.
