How well does this product stop water?

It is a liquid epoxy that forms a tight seal membrane when it dries. I used it on my basement where the water was leaking between the floor and wall seam. So far, after two years, it has not leaked. The company has great customer service. They replaced a can of their product that had crystalized. I suspect it was too old; their small cans of the stuff probably sit around. Their response was immediate with an apology. Be sure to mix each can separately BEFORE you mix them together.

We used it to seal small (1/16") cracks in concrete after mixing it with Portland cement...so far the basement has been dry even on very rainy days when before we would get several gallons of water. Have not used it directly as a paint.

Great product. For wider cracks, mix with hydraulic cement and apply a second coat without the hydraulic cement.

Having purchased a home that had a what I considered a major leak in a basement beneath grade I found Hydro-Seal after lots of research. The product performs as advertised. It has stopped water since application. I did apply very think in a few porous areas and continued to the foundation with a 12 inch application on the floor. My home is DRY. Mix the can in thirds since it sets up quickly (35-45 min).

I've never had a problem with the pad getting wet. This pad has worked really well so far!

I've had mine out prospecting in the rain several times and it seems to repel water pretty well. Over time, I'll just spray some Scotch Guard on it to maintain it's repellency if needed.

Paula, yes it does the job. I have not had any problems with it getting wet when it rains. However, it does not cover the entire unit down to ground. The cover stops just above the legs. I hope that helps you.

I did use it once when it was raining and the water did not leak through. Hope this helps.

Well, I left water in my sink with the Tub Stopper while I went for a walk, and it worked fine. I guess it depends on the shape and size of your sink drain, but for my average big box store sink, it worked great. I'm actually glad to know that! Hope it works for you!

Yes to both of these questions, but it significantly reduced my water pressure. I used it once and would not recommend.

Melissa - I used this product on a wood island top in my kitchen. The product will dry to a hard finish and provide good protection. Our sink is located in the island so there is frequent water contact and this provides good protection. I typically re-apply the product 1-2 times per year.

It's not a waterproofer. It is a moisture inhibitor and helps eliminate water stains

It has been a low as 20 below here in Iowa and this has worked for the bird bath. I do not know for a continued flow of water. A lot better than some others I have tried - for sure heavy duty. One challenge, squirrels might gnaw on the wire and cause a short, real easy to repair.

We have not used it very much to give an answer for this. I primarily wanted it to water a small garden I have near the patio. I was pleased how it works for small and odd shaped areas. I am not disappointed we purchased.

I think it works pretty well. I've left water overnight. A little may have leaked out.

It repels water very well! We've had some very heavy rains and it hasn't soaked through at all. It truly keeps the stoop dry. I was impressed by the quality of this awning when the price was so reasonable. I love it!

I first purchased this product back in 1999, before the Y2K scare. I did a fair amount of research at that time, and used Aerobic07 to treat several 55 gallon drums of water. I have continued to keep water in reserve in those drums, refreshing the treatment with Aerobic07 each time that I replace the water. Although I have never had cause to truly tap into my reserve, the product does seem to work well, and is a much better solution than using chlorine bleach to "protect" the water. Based on my initial research, I replace the water between 4 and 5 years.

I've only used plain water, and it works very well. This thing has been such a lifesaver since we've had all the rain and snow the past couple weeks.

Some water collects in the bottom but I have never had a problem with it to the degree that it would over flow.
