| Koiczar, I agree about the smooth surface application for the product -- which is what I had, roughly similar to 60 grit sand paper -- however regardless of how well you follow their instruction, and that is exactly what I did, the product will not cover 60 Square feet per can as they imply in their docs. The coverage is more like 15-20 sq feet per kit. At wholesale $60/can this can be a very expensive application – I think retail is even worst, I have seen it go for as high as $95/Quart.
In addition, when I completed the application of Pond Armor, and the pond was still leaking, the only help they provided was to offer to sell me more of their crappy product. They blame everything from the construction of the pond, to the quality of the PVC that I used.
Also, are you seriously telling me that those two guys at Pond Armor actually manufacture this stuff? First off I challenge you to try to find their company listed in any manufacturing database, or for that matter California Corporate Registry -- they do not exist -- they are a tiny two man show in Santa Maria, CA, without any manufacturing capacity. When they say they "mixing your cans", it simply implies that they are taking material from a larger case, adding tint and caning it with their label.
Also, do you really think that there is that much difference in Expoy material sold by Pond Armor & Nelsonite or for that matter any other Epoxy supplier? This stuff is all the same. It is all about the labeling. At least I know that Nelsonite is a large and reputable company, not some Mickey Mouse operation run by two painters. |
