Paint Samples

P1 Waterbased Coating
A waterbased resin based coating designed for easy and safe application onto most common pond substrates (surfaces). It possess the properties of conventional resin coatings but without the usual toxic solvents used as a dispersing agent: P1 uses water instead! It can be applied to prepared surfaces, even if damp, with the ease of ordinary emulsion or masonry paint, with no special thinners or cleaning agents required for your brushes and rollers, just wash them in water afterwards. It dries to a tough, easily cleaned, waterproof coating. It is available in Clear, Blue, Black or Green from our stock, or any colour to the BS colour range to special order. It is supplied in 1, 2.5 and 5 litre packs. Two coats are required to form a waterproof coating. Coverage is between 5-10 metres square per litre per coat.

P2 Non-Toxic Waterbased Woodstain
Our P2 Non-Toxic Waterbased Woodstain has been designed specifically for use in the sensitive environment around a pond. Some traditional woodstains can leech toxic components into your pond as they are subjected to the weathering process, ours is guaranteed not to! Another concern with timber around a pond is the treatment it receives by the suppliers to give it a longer life: these preservatives can contain chemicals such as cyanide, and again leeching can occur due to weathering. Treating your timber with our P2 Non-Toxic Waterbased Woodstain encapsulates these chemicals thus preventing contamination. Our Woodstain contains a high quality waterbased copolymer dispersion agent to give deep penetration into the timber and thus produces excellent exterior durability. Coverage is dependant on the type and quality of the timber being treated. It is supplied in Clear, Brown, Black, Walnut, Mahogany & Blue, in pack sizes of 1, 2.5 and 5 litres.

P3 Waterstop
Waterstop is a fast setting powder based sealant which when mixed with water can be applied to cracks in concrete or rendered brick or block ponds creating a long lasting seal. It can also be used to stop "live" leaks from the outside of you pond should it be accessible.

P5 Two Pack Epoxy Putty
This product is ideal for nearly all sealing situations, such as cracks or leaks in pipework, around bottom drains, pipe entries and exits through your pond and many other situations. There is no need to drain your pond or pipework to apply Epoxy Putty as this product will set underwater.

Other Products

We can supply you with a wide range of waterproofing products for your pond. These include SBR, a latex based additive that improves bonding and makes concrete, mortar or renders waterproof. Tanking Slurry is another product that facilitates sound, waterproof ponds when used in conjunction with SBR and P1 Waterbased Epoxy Coating. Please contact us for free, practical advice on the construction of your pond.
