Excellent work my friend ….that sure looks like some very stanky mildew like water

You’re really getting the hang of resin water, if you ask me.
Thanks, having had a leak , not using reisin I might add, before I realised that sealing is the most important . There are several things to be aware of, mixing the correct way, and the amounts of harder /resin . The cleaning up at the end is NOT fun either.

It’s looking the dogs danglies Mr Race :cool:
What is the product your using for the water ?
Thanks Si , I'm using a resin by Craft Resin , from their Deep Pour range. There's been very few bubbles to contend with, due somehow to their method of manufacture.

Well after a bit of a wait I've managed to do the final pour. The 2nd pour was still tacky after 48 hrs, so a gentle sanding was called for, this time I really worked on it. Once clean and dusted with a tac rag I set to and did the mix. Using a minor amount of colour this time the pour was done. Covered with the bucket for an hr to give time for the bubbles to form , I removed the top and applied the heat gun, just one pass was required and they dissipated. Took the bucket cover off later to check and left it until this morning.

Still have to finish the vegetation on the top , esp around the tracks. The Lilly's are next to place on the surface.

Thanks for following.
John.
