Antel A1 Pond Paint is a universal water based epoxy resin coating designed for easy and safe application. A1 Pond Paint possesses most of the properties of conventional epoxy resins with many additional advantages, particularly its tolerance of damp application conditions. It is applied in the same manner as ordinary emulsion paint and dries quickly to form a tough, easily cleaned coating, providing a waterproof and virtually vapour free barrier. Not suitable for application to butyl liners.   Once cured A1 Pond Paint will give a good finish with a tough durable surface which is completely waterproof, non toxic, resistant to oil, petrol and mild chemicals. Subsequent over coating can be carried out after the original surface has been thoroughly degreased and cleaned.

We are an established coatings designer/manufacturer operating from our modern well equiped factory. We provide all customers with free telephone support for any enquires you may have after your purchase. When purchasing pond paint it is very important to check out a few things before you buy: 

1. Is it designed as a pond paint? This may seem like a silly question but there are people on eBay who sell products not designed to be used as pond paints. These products may provide a short term solution but the fact is they are not designed for the purpose and they have extremely limited history. 

2. The coverage. How many litres is irrelevant. What really matters is the coverage. For example, there are other sellers with massive 25 litre containers of their product and the coverage is no more than our 5 litre container. They claim it is the cheapest on eBay and if you weren't particularly knowledgeable, we could understand why you would believe this. Every litre of our pond paint will cover approximately 7 m2. This not only means that our product is the highest quality on eBay, but that it is no more expensive than the much cheaper engineered products being sold.

Viscosity (thickness) of the material is directly relevant to the coverage. Our material does not require a huge thickness of product to achieve a waterproof surface, whereas less chemically advanced materials rely completely on being applied on mass.

3. Colour. We have a range of colours, not just black. The colour remains unaffected by pond growth above the waterline and we can even colour match free of charge on orders of 10 litres or more. Please call us if you'd like to discuss a custom colour.

4. Where are you buying it from? The final thing you should check is where it is coming from. After all you are buying a chemical and you may well need some advice on how to best apply it. If you are not buying the product direct from either the manufacturer, or a reputable appointed stockist you are taking a big risk. The seller themselves probably doesn't fully know the product.

Antel are the market leader in pond paint. We supply the most highly regarded pond builders and aquatic outlets nationwide. With over 20 years experience, we will be able to provide you with the best level of support.

Most paints will not go onto wet surfaces but this product can be applied to damp surfaces using a roller/brush. Compared to it's nearest rival that costs around £8 a square metre A1 Pond Paint is much better value.

Full Details

1. DESCRIPTION 

Antel A1 Pond Paint is a universal water based epoxy resin coating, designed for easy and safe application. 

A1 Pond Paint possesses most of the properties of conventional epoxy resins with many additional advantages, particularly its tolerance of damp application conditions. It is applied in the same manner as ordinary emulsion paint and dries quickly to form a tough, easily cleaned coating, providing a waterproof barrier. The coating is non toxic, resistant to oil, and most mild chemicals. Subsequent over coating can be carried out after the original surface has been thoroughly degreased and cleaned. 

2. USES 

The scope of applications for A1 Pond Paint is extensive and it can be used virtually anywhere that concrete, masonry, fibreglass or marine plywood requires protection or waterproofing.  For metal we recommend Antel Epoxy Solvent Free Coating.

3. PACKAGING 

A two part product available in 1, 2.5 and 5 litres. Non- returnable containers. 

4. STORAGE 

Store in a cool, dry and frost free area in original containers. Protect from freezing. Keep out of the reach of children. A shelf life in excess of 12 months can be expected for unopened containers kept in the above conditions. 

5. DRYING & CURING 

At 20 °C, and with reasonable ventilation, the coating is touch dry in 6 hours and hard dry in 12 hours. Maximum cure, hardness and chemical resistance is obtained within 7 days. 

6. COVERAGE 

Every litre of pond paint will cover approximately 6-7 squared metres (based on a non porous, smooth surface), however this will vary depending on how thickly you apply the material and also how porous the surface is. 

If you are unsure on the porosity of the surface, we recommend you buy a little more than you think you will need to ensure you don’t run out of paint part way through the application. 

7. CLEANING EQUIPMENT 

When using spray equipment a thorough rinsing with cold water every hour will prevent a build up of cured material. Brushes and rollers should be washed with cold water and detergent and rinsed thoroughly in cold water. 

8. INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

8.1. PREPARATION

THE PERFORMANCE OF THE COATING CAN BE SERIOUSLY IMPAIRED IF THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS ARE NOT STRICTLY ADHERED TO

Do not use any PVA coating on the substrate prior to application, as this will result in the paint peeling off.

Do not apply in temperatures below 10 °C/50 °F and ensure there is at least a 4 hour weather window.  We do not recommend application late in the day, due to dropping temperatures and increased humidity.

A1 Pond Paint can be applied in mildly damp conditions but will not tolerate standing water.

Although A1 Pond Paint will overcoat most other finishes and paints, the best results are achieved when surfaces are clean and free of other finishes/coatings. If applying over an existing coating or to a non-porous surface, mechanically sand the area to create a key.

All surfaces should be dry, mildly damp or at least not subject to running water. Particular attention should be made to degreasing surfaces before application. All voids and surface imperfections must be carefully filled.

Clean the surface you will be applying the A1 Pond Paint to. If there are any leaks, these should be repaired with Antel Waterstop or Antel Epoxy Putty before applying the A1 Pond Paint. If unsure, please contact us for technical advice.

A1 Pond Paint can be applied to fibreglass but it’s important the surface is mechanically sanded to provide a key.

The pot life is approximately 1.5 hours.  This is based on a temperature of 20 °C/68 °F.  If you are applying the coating in higher temperatures, the pot life may be reduced.  The material will become unworkable once outside of this pot life.

Once mixed, it is only possible to apply a single coat.  Do not attempt to return to the mix to apply a second coat.

Once application is complete please wait 4-5 days before refilling your pond.  If the average temperatures has been over 20 °C then this can be reduced to 3 days.

8.2. MIXING

For simplicity we would recommend using a separate pack of A1 Pond Paint for each coat, however if you would like to use one pack for both coats, you will need to accurately divide the A and B packs proportionately using digital scales.

1. Mix the A Pack thoroughly.

2. Mix the B Pack thoroughly.

3. Pour the contents of the B Pack into the larger A Pack.

4. Mix again thoroughly (ideally with a mixer paddle) for a minimum of three minutes, so that the two components are completely mixed. 

5. Pour into at least one roller tray to maintain pot life.

6. Start application immediately.

8.3. APPLICATION STEPS

1. Apply the first coat by medium pile roller or brush.  Do not apply too thickly, as this may affect the curing process. This is particularly important for A1 Pond Paint Clear where thick application may result in a milky appearance.

2. Wait 24 hours before applying the second coat. Reduced time between coats maybe possible, but it’s very important to seek technical advice from Antel before attempting this.

3. Within a maximum period of 48 hours, apply the second coat.

4. After applying the final coat, wait 3-7 days (depending on temperature) before refilling your pond.   Once fulled cured, the material is chemically inert.

9. HEALTH & SAFETY 

A1 Pond Paint is much safer to handle than other resin systems, however it is recommended that all skin contact is avoided and that any areas of contact are washed immediately with soap and warm water. It is advisable to use a barrier cream and gloves when applying. 

FOR FULL DETAILS PLEASE REFER TO HEALTH & SAFETY DATA SHEET.

NOTE REF 1 - Antel A1 Pond Paint – Clear:

With the formulation of the emulsion the mixture will take on a milky colour. This milkiness will gradually disappear during the curing cycle provided that the coating is not too thickly applied nor allowed to fill holes in the surface area of the application. If either of these situations does occur the milkiness will not disappear. All voids or surface imperfections must be carefully filled prior to any application of Clear A1 Pond Paint.
