Stopping Leaks on Concrete Trough

[jmangrem]

Anyone ever applied an epoxy or other lining system on a concrete tank to stop leaks like this one?

I tried all kinds of stuff on my cement stock tank (circa 1907). I finally bought a liner material for it and . . . no more leaks.

im a waterproofer and the best way to fix that is to drain in and do it from the inside. negative side waterproofing hardly ever works/lasts. its like sticking a band aid on it. it might hold for a few months or maybe a year but it will leak again.

NP-1......from the inside while dry.

Do you remember the brand/type of liner?

Anyone ever used this stuff?
I've read mixed reviews...its pretty much a bed liner in a can.

Sorry, I've slept since then.
It was a 'brand name' and it is black, probably 1/16" thick. It came in some 'standard sizes' and I think it was around $350 for what I needed (my stock tank is probably 8' wide by 20' long and 3' deep), which I think was 16'x30'.

Had problems with my basement walls. I grinded the crack to open it up further, cleaned the area of all loose dris, then added hydraulic cement. Worked like a charm.

NP-1 is the product to use. Good stuff.

Splash Zone 2-part epoxy. Water activated. Clean up inside best you can (algae), mix and apply. Have to order it through a commercial dive supply. Kind of expensive, but easy. We used to use it to seal things on ships underwater.
