water proof coating

chong188 Oct 18, 2003 11:07 AM

Okay im making a waterfall for my CWD's. im going to paint it grey i want to spray paint it grey to give it a mottled effect but if this isnt safe can someone please inform me.
Next since there will be water running down the waterfall i need a coating that will prevent the paint from coming off and poisoning my dragons. so what im asking i guess what do i use as a non-toxic reptile safe water proofing. thanks for all your help
here are the hopeful waterfall owners.

I've used and recommend Envirotex epoxy. The dragon cages in the link below have had plaster pools and waterfalls coated with Envirotex for over 10 years.

I highly recommend you look all of the site linked below. Make sure you follow all the links, etc. There is some very good information.

Where can we buy this product? It looks great. Is it expensive? What kind of coverage does it give you with surfaces like yours?

Thanks,
