Non-toxic sealant

mistamasta Apr 14, 2006 05:33 PM

Does any one know a brand name or common place that I can find a non-toxic sealant for fake rocks? I've looked everywhere in town.
On a side note anyone know how safe an acrylic polyurethane is after it dries? Thanks for any help in advance.

An acrylic polyurethane should be fine, albeit a bit plastic looking for fake rocks.

There are a lot of acrylic sealers out there but I don't know what's good and what's not.

Behr makes a concrete sealant ( can only assume that's how your making you rocks ) that I bought from one of the many home improvement places. After I let it cure, I cycled the water for at least 30 days, testing with a aquarium grade water testing kit, and found that nothing was leached into the water... it's good stuff, let me see if I can find the name...
