Posted Pond sealers to wood
22-08-2006

Hi folks, new to this forum.
I intend to use a half barrel made from wood as a small water feature/pond with the intention of homing a couple of small fish.
Can someone recommend a suitable sealant to fully waterproof the barrel please?
I don't want to use pond liners as the seams would look unsightly.
Thanks

if the barrel was made by a good couper, then it shouldnt leak mate im in the whisky trade, dealing with casks right now, but any leaks we use the traditional method, which is straw tightly packed into the leaking area, and they dont leak for 12 years

No probs kobiskye. Thanks for the welcome anyway!

Wayne - have already been given the half barrel.

Have seen a sealer G40 but it looks specifically for cement based ponds.

Hi sammy jane. That's the stuff I've seen but appears to be for cement/mortar based materials.

I might give it a try though.

Cheers
