Why did you di a 1/2" indention on the glass track trim board? (Just for looks?)
@bradsbioactivebuilds Күн бұрын
@parkerwhitt1453 correct, just for looks and finished product. Either Having it flush or 1/2 indention would work. Hope this helps 🤘💯🤘

What was the 3 products you used to paint the zoopoxy I heard drylok ---- and paint lol and that all you don’t have to seal after the paint just make sure the zoopoxy dry before painting right ??
@bradsbioactivebuilds Күн бұрын
@4g63turboking8 correct. I use drylok only for the texture and look when it drys. Then arts and crafts matte acrylics. Send me a message on IG or Patreon and I'll send u a pic of the ones I use. Hole this helps! 🤘💯🤘

@4g63turboking8 I do wait minimum 10 days for the drylok to fully cure before adding water. I also tried a new method in this video using a spray bottle with black paint to make it look even more weathered

I would love to make an 8x4x4 enclosure for my red tail, but I'm having a difficult time finding pvc boards. Any plywood you would recommend to be ok with multiple coats of drylock.
@bradsbioactivebuilds 6 күн бұрын
You can use a hard wood 5 ply plywood or birch wood. You can seal the inside with polygem 2 part epoxy. It's easy to use and will help keep the wood from rotting due to humidity.

But in all seriousness, there are a lot of steps, but they are all fairly simple once you get started. I really wanted to shed some light on making the water land divider water tight. This is where I see a lot of people take shortcuts, and a few months down the road, they have leaks that flood and waterlog the substrate. Hope this helps 🤘💯🤘

At this point, PolyGem REALLY needs to give you a substantial sponsorship. I know that you've previously said that they give you a bit of a discount but you repeatedly show new and innovative STUNNING ways to use large amounts of their product for much more then just pools, leaks and plumbing fixes. I need to look into if I can acquire this in Canada because you've turned this product into a MUST use for any DIY enclosure that has moisture/water, and sparked so many other ideas for individual indoor or outdoor water features and much, much more!!
