Black Knight Wizard Fibre
Black Knight Wizard Fibre
The easy to use cement additive that makes your pond smoother, stronger and crack-resistant.
Building a concrete pond has never been so easy.
Black Knight Wizard Fibre has been in use for decades in specialised architectural and construction projects where very high performance is required to withstand sustained stresses or harsh conditions and where long service is important.
Wizard Fibre is a very fine glass fibre designed specifically for mortar or concrete reinforcement. It has been in use for decades in specialised architectural and construction projects where very high performance is required to withstand sustained stresses or harsh conditions and where long service is important.
Why use Black Knight Wizard Fibre ?
Allows a much stronger mix, leading to a smoother crack-resistant finish that is safer for the fish:
- Saves money
- Increases workability, making it easier to apply
- Far stronger, more durable and easier to use than polypropylene alternatives
- Dramatically reduces the likelihood of leaks developing
- High zirconia content offers superb alkali resistance
- Wizard Fibre and Concrete Ponds
The addition of Wizard Fibre has several long-lasting benefits, with the bonus that it is very easy to use. The fibre matrix and the fact that there is a high cement content means that the mix is very sticky but creamy in texture. It flows and adheres to the wall much more easily than a traditional mix. This brings the practice of concrete pond-building within the scope of the average hobbyist, thus saving a considerable amount of money.
When the final Wizard render has set and dried it can be painted with a proprietary pond paint. The special characteristics of Wizard ensure that it disperses evenly in the mixer. The product appears to be in flat strips but when water is added and it is subjected to the action of the mixer, all of these strips break into much finer strands. As these are so fine they do not present any kind of hazard if some of them are protruding from the final finish and therefore they do not require any further attention.
A well constructed pond with a Wizard Fibre render and a good quality pond paint could last a lifetime.
Mix proportions:
1 – 2% fibres added to the total mix by weight.
3 parts of building sand to 1 part cement.
We recommend the use of a mortar plasticiser in the mix (available at builders’ merchants) because it makes application easier.
Coverage
A 1kg pack of Wizard Fibre can cover 8 – 18sqm at 5mm thick.
Typical mix proportions:
5 litres cement, 15 litres sand, 225 – 450g fibres.
Notes:
The addition of fibre to the mix will improve workability up to about 90g per litre of cement and will decrease above this figure. Maximum crack resistance and strength is achieved at about this level. We suggest you experiment on a test area before you begin the job.
Allow extra time in the mixer for fibre dispersal. We suggest a minimum of 80 drum revolutions.
Do not attempt to render in hot, direct sunshine. The mix will dry out rather than cure, and it will spoil. Do not apply in frosty conditions.
This product should be applied only to surfaces that are sound and stable.

Gold Label Pond Paint Black
Gold Label Pond Paint Black
This unique paint is designed to effectively seal and re-paint the concrete lining of your pond. It works using only 2 coats (on smooth surfaces) without needing primer, and as it is water based can be applied to damp surfaces. This means it is also less toxic than traditional pond paints. It has coverage of 6-8 m2 which also means with 2 coats used (on smooth rendered concrete) it is far more cost effective than the typical pond paints out there. With a second coat application time of 6-48 hours and such ease of application, professional pond builders are choosing Gold Label Pond Paint every time! It comes in a variety of colours and sizes, is easy to mix and apply, and dries after 6-8 hours (full cure 3-7 days). The paint also works on other surfaces such as: blocks, brick, tiles, fibreglass and plastic. It should last approximately 5-10 years, giving you a fresh look to your water tight pond for years to come!
- No Primer Needed
- Works on damp surfaces
- Easy to apply with brush, roller or spray.
- Water based, therefore easier to clean & less toxic.
- 2 coats only (on smooth surfaces)
- Quicker pond refill than single pack paints
- Coverage of 6-8 m2 per litre
- Comes in recyclable packaging
DO NOT APPLY IN TEMPERATURES LOWER THAN 10°C OR OVER 25°C
Prep your pond: Make sure the surface is clean and dry and free of any imperfections/cracks etc. Should you find any cracks fill where appropriate with Gold Label Pond & Aquarium Sealer. For large cracks V out the crack to approximately 10mm, make sure the surface to be bonded is solid & dust free, prime the surface with PVA (follow manufacturer’s instructions), then fill with Gold Label Pond & Aquarium Sealer.
Prep the paint: Please note: Although Gold Label Pond Paint is much safer than normal resin systems; it is recommended you should avoid contact by using a barrier cream or gloves. Please find the link to our gloves here. Any splashes should be washed off with soap and water.
- Your paint comes in 2 sections, the hardener in the top and the paint in the bottom. Prior to adding the hardener, thoroughly stir the paint. Add the hardener to the paint in the bottom pot and mix thoroughly for a minimum of 2 minutes (VERY IMPORTANT). Once mixed, the paint is usable for around 1.5 hours in ambient temperatures. (Over 20°c the timing will be reduced.)
- Once mixed, apply the paint by brush, roller or spray, ensuring that the coating reaches all corners, nooks & crannies etc. Apply a minimum of 2 coats (the 2nd coat can be applied once the 1st coat is touch dry (approx. 6-8 hours at 20°c) This applies to any subsequent coats). The paint will cure hard in 12 hours, and fully cure in 3-7 days depending on atmospheric conditions. Once fully cured, wash the surface completely and allow to drain before refilling to use once again. B: Leave for 24 hours and if there is any residue on the surface, skim off before adding any livestock.

Impermax Aqua Application Guidelines
Product must be applied in quantities ranging 1.5 up to 2 kg/m2, resulting in a membrane thickness of 1.4 to 1.9 mm.
Ideally, it must be applied in 2 separate coats, best in different colours (assuring enough quantity is applied in each layer).
It is important to mix the product well before its application with an electric mixer, at low rpm (avoiding that too much air enters the resin). It is also necessary to let the product rest for a few minutes so that air bubbles disappear.
It is recommended to use Humidity Primer ( 200g per square meter) in most situations. Impermax can be applied even in cases of low temperatures (< 5ºC) and high relative humidity’s, obtaining very short cure times in combination with our PUR Cat additive.
Impermax Geomax Geotextiel – 30cm x 100m
Impermax Geomax Geotextiel – 30cm x 100m
Geomax Geotextiel reinforcement. A special nonwoven, made of synthetic fibre, specially developed for use in conjunction with Impermax (and its elasticity). This is optimally suitable for places (eg corners, gaps, floor drains) where increased protection is necessary.
This cloth minimizes the effect of self-distribution of the product and thus ensures that a corresponding thickness is reached quickly.
Main applications: IMPERMAX internal layer to protect against damage caused by corners, sharp objects, edges, etc to reduce the effect of self-distribution, for example, when processing steep / vertical surfaces as protection from below, when IMPERMAX on uneven surfaces is processed.
Available in 2 versions: as reinforcement (GEOMAX) or as superior /inferior protection of membranes, and drainage (GEOMAX PROTEC).-
Geomax is available in small width (30 cm), ideal to treat wall/floor areas, and when preparing areas before waterproofing.
Geomax is a thermo-welded Geotextile fabric used for reinforcement with Impermax Waterproofing Systems. It has a weight of 80 grams per sq. m. The Geo has to be fully saturated with the wet Impermax Liquid. The 30cm wide roll is ideal for the details- where the base of the pond meets the vertical. This is a critical area/ junction -and should be reinforced using 15cm width on the vertical and 15cm width on the Base. If the cement /screed if badly cracked then reinforce the total area with the 1m wide reinforcement.
Impermax Humidity Primer 5kg
Impermax Humidity Primer
It is not recommended to apply Impermax Aqua membrane directly on surfaces which may contain moisture or on damp surfaces, or humidity content, either on the surface or trapped underneath.
Humidity creates two important problems in treatments:
- Lack of adhesion.
- The appearance of blisters in the surface of the finished membrane (due to the vapour pressure generated as the area is exposed to sunlight, which creates bubbles and deforms the elastic material).
In case of damp surfaces, or if there is suspicion of humidity, it is imperative to pre-treat the area with Impermax Humidity Primer.
The quantity of Impermax Humidity Primer should be approx., 200 to 300 grams per square meter.
It is recommended to use Humidity Primer in most situations. Impermax can be applied even in cases of low temperatures (< 5ºC) and high relative humidity’s, obtaining very short cure times in combination with our PUR Cat additive.
Usage:
5 kg is sufficient for approx. 16.6 m²
Impermax Paintchlore
AquaForte Impermax Paintchlore
Impermax Paintchlore Transparent (chlorine resistant) can be painted over an existing Impermax layer to make this chlorine resistant, or you want to repair a leak to other existing (swimming pool) tiles or (swimming pool) film.
Since the normal Impermax Liquid film is not chlorine resistant. Impermax 2 kg per m² general description: economical and easy to use, gives your pond a seamless, continuous membrane that completely matches the surface. Outstanding mechanical and chemical properties. Certified according to EEC directive 98/83/CE, which means it can even come into contact with drinking water for human consumption. This membrane can even be easily used on places that other systems find hard to reach. Impermax can be applied at low temperatures and in relatively damp conditions. Doesn’t need to be mixed and no special primer is required. The product consists of one component.
Special primers are available for damp ground in order to apply the membrane. Humidity Primer for damp ground is a two-component product (two cans). Thickening agents are practical for vertical surfaces such as walls. Characteristics: high-quality, fluid membrane, based on a one-component polyurethane. High degree of elasticity (400%) – bridges crevices and gaps and distortions in the ground. Can be walked on Perfect for making (swimming) ponds, water tanks, channels, terraces, balconies, bathrooms, etc. water-tight. Dries quickly, even at low temperatures. Does not adhere to polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP). Drying time: 4 – 6 hours in summer 12 – 24 hours in winter. To apply in at least three or four layers, in order to get a membrane bonded thickness from 1.5 to 1.9 mm (2 kg/m²).
It is recommended that in most use cases that the Humidity Primer is used as a base. Consumption: 2 kg per m².
Impermax PU Primer 4 kg
Impermax PU Primer 4 kg
The PU primer serves as a primer for very smooth and non-porous surfaces such as ceramics, tiles, metal, plastic, etc. and thus ensures better adhesion between the existing surface and Impermax.
If the waterproof surface is very smooth and non-porous (e.g. ceramic, tile, aluminum, etc.) it can happen that the high cohesion of this product means that Impermax does not adhere immediately.
First treat the surface with PU primer, this ensures better adhesion between the existing surface and Impermax.
Consumption:
0.2 kg / per m²
4 kg are sufficient for approx. 20 m²
The quantity of PU Primer should be approx., 200 to 300 grams per square meter.
