Could this product be used to seal natural stone coping around a saltwater pool?

Following the package instructions, you should have no problem using this on natural stone. The issue of saltwater should not impact the efficacy of the product to repel water.

On the instructions, it says that it is not designed for use on horizontal surfaces. I had bought it to use on my flagstone coping around my saltwater pool. So I went ahead and used it. It also says it shouldn't be used on surfaces already sealed, which mine had been about a year earlier. I power washed and applied the Rainguard. So far working great. Glad I did it.

Micro-seal can be used on both vertical and horizontal surfaces and will work on natural stone. Where there is very frequent exposure to water I would recommend a 2nd coat or suggest using the Micro-seal in the concentrated version and add less water than the instructions indicate which will put more active ingredients below the surface for greater protection. (type Micro-seal Concentrate in the Amazon search bar to see the options available).

Kinda depends on how porous your flagstone is. I sealed about 300 square feet of slate twice and used 3 qts. Hope that helps. Is really good stuff.

I don't usually seal my stone work ( not my nature or use ) but I'd try going to Home Depot or Lowes and read the labels...or ask a countertop outfit what they use. Lots of option I think, dep on your application. Hope it helps - have fun.

Of course. I used it to fill in the gaps to prevent water leakage as well as using the foam to build a little stone wall up on the liner for cosmetics.I do not what you could not do with this 'stuff'. It will fix you right up.

I would NOT recommend using this product for what you are suggesting. Product is very thick, like Vaseline petroleum jelly. I use it around rubber O rings and gaskets with hot tub and swimming pool equipment. Hope this helps.

I received the "Universal" Kreepy Krauly (#360042- pleated seal- for Concrete, Vinyl, and Fiberglass pools). I am using it for an inground concrete pool and it works fine.

I don't think so. I mean, it would depend on the size of the pool and the amount of water you can have in it. While it can repair cracks in materials that are sturdy (like porcelain, pottery, the cracks in my old rain boots), I don't think it can handle the pressure of a lot of water pressing against it.There are other products out there for the type of repairs that you are considering. I did see something on a television infomercial, but cannot recall the name now.

I would think you could use it with salt water since all internal working parts that the salt water can come into contact with is plastic.

We have a salt water pool and have had no problems at all! However one of our neighbors ended up getting some special screws-I believe they were some form of acrylic. They have a chlorine pool. I hope this helps. Tiffany

yes, but it is preferable to remove and scrape clean before using. you need to use a putty or silicone sealer to flare out the sides to make a proper waterproof seal.Ron C

Possible? If you had something to seal it with after. Depends on the way you treat it too. I use it mainly for polymer clay and seal with glaze.

You could use it for saltwater but the lighting may not be proper for what you plan on putting in the tank. It may not be suitable for corals or live rock.

When this product is applied, it is very slippery when wet. Although the product looks great applied and does a wonderful job sealing... I would not use it next to the pool.

This is appropriate for use for setting bowls, fixtures, faucets, sink frames and strainers and I don't think it would be appropriate for this use. It depends on how big the gap is and whether there is anything solid behind the ceramic tiles to keep it from falling through the hole. It would be hard to make a smooth surface with it since you can't push it to take the ridges out of it. The container says "it is specifically designed to make a waterproof seal between any two 'rigid' surfaces". It also says, "Do not use on marble, granite, limestone or any other dimensional stone". I guess you'd have to say whether you'd call your area two 'rigid' surfaces. Sorry I can't be more specific There is also available a Oatey Stain-Free Plumber's Putty to be used on the stones mentioned above.

I think you would be fine using this product with salt water pools that use the salt for chlorine generation. The product is mostly baking soda with water clarifier added in. The product does 3 things: increases pH, increases Alkalinity and adds clarifier to your pool water. I use this product with my outdoor pool which holds about 28,000 gallon and have been very happy with it. I add about 1 tablet of this per 4 tablets of 3 inch chlorine tablets that I put into my chlorinator. If you monitor your pool chemistry you could also periodically just add a tablet(s) when your pH and Alkalinity levels get low in your pool. You could also buy Arm & Hammer baking soda for Alkalinity adjustment with a separate pool water clarifier product and use them as directed to achieve the same end result.
