Can you use this to seal a water fountain? I built a rectangle fountain that will hold 20 gallons of water. Will this seal the cement so water doesn't migrate through

No, silicate densities do not repel water. If you want a sealer, you need to use a water repellent silage silicate sealer, like the Armor SX5000. This product should only be used for small fountains and can't be used to seal cracks. Larger fountains will require a coating, such as an epoxy or a paint.

according to what you filled it with... (Water) You can dip it out with a small container. Cement is permanent . unless you filled it with bricks and sand you can empty that out.

I found that the grout strongly repelled water, but did not prevent water from entering when saturated in water over time. I used it in my shower and I believe the plastic drain pan in my shower prevented the water from going into the floor. If you plan to have water on your floor all the time I do not believe the grout would be enough. I have only used it a couple months, I am not sure how long it lasts.

Probably so. I would be careful as if you glue carpet over and then later peeled it up it might pull off water seal as well. I used it for waterproofing concrete backer board in our shower - worked great for that!

Not sure either. I used approx. 4 oz. to seal a leaky 250 Gal. hot tub. If you were to try, depending on your fountain size, you may need the 32 oz. bottle or more.

I don't believe so, I purchased the product to keep the rain water from seeping through our 10x10 canopy at craft shows. I believe it is more of a repellant for water than a sealing agent.

My pond is cement so I really couldn't answer that question honestly. Sorry.

It would hold water for a little while but would NOT recommend for long term water works. It is wood and only lightly varnished. If you lightly sanded it and then completely covered it with three coats of polyurethane it might stand up to being used as a fountain but not as is.

I sealed about 600 sq.ft. of basement floor, two coats, with 5 gallon using a sprayer. The product is very thin and will probably not work very well for walls. The manufacture has a website and phone number to contact for special applications. http://www.stonetechnologiesinc.com/

I am not sure. I bought it for use over a shower enclosure. But my basement used to have water seep in after bad rains. I recently had it painted with Dry Lok and it has stayed dry since.

The answer is yes but I was wondering why you wouldn't use a waterproof construction grade adhesive in will work but you might find it expensive since I really don't know the entire scope of the job I hope this helps I would be more than happy to help further if I get a little more detail about the job hope this is helpful good luck with your project Gil

I'm sorry...not familiar with travertine sealer. I can tell you I used this to seal the perimeter walls of my basement, which are all brick. Bit had sealed off moisture well so far.

That is exactly why I bought it-a limestone basement wall that was seeping. Yes it should if it isn't too extensive. I assume concrete would not be as bad/porous as crumbling limestone. So far I have used two coats but have to do that to see where it is still leaking. It appears to be a really effective product if repair is within reason (not sure mine is) L. Bane, Pittsburgh, PA

try it, this more for concrete/when putting sealer.I recommend testing a small area first and letting it dry to see what happens.

No- this is not a product that will last outdoors on concrete. Get the sealer. Done right the first time is cheaper than doing it over..lol!

I think it would. I used it to seal a leaking outdoor water fountain. I mixed it per instructions, poured in and it dried clear & rock hard. It hardens very fast. Make sure cabinet is solid & can stand a little expansion which might happen as it fills any voids & hardens.

Yes, I believe so. I used it to seal a painted troth of the water feature in my back garden
