It is the ideal solution for creating secure, watertight seals in various landscaping and aquatic projects.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For setup, you will need a standard caulking gun to dispense the adhesive from the 290 ml cartridge. Cut the nozzle to your desired bead width and apply a consistent line along the clean, dry surface you wish to bond. Press the surfaces together firmly and hold or clamp them until the adhesive takes hold.
Compatibility includes most common pond materials like EPDM, rubber, PVC, as well as stones and metals. Always store the cartridge in a cool, dry place when not in use. As the product contains dioctylbis(pentan-2,4-dionato-O,O) tin, always wear protective gloves and work in a well-ventilated area to avoid potential allergic reactions or skin irritation.
