Better than expected
This stuff is superb. Bought it for a damp garage wall that was getting mouldy.Cleaned off the mould and applied this all over the brickwork.No more damp coming through the bricks, smell of damp has gone and it looks nice and clean too.Really impressed. Would buy again if I needed to tackle damp.It was easy to brush on with a normal brush and coverage estimate was pretty accurate even on the back of bricks.The trick is mixing with plenty of water otherwise it thickens quite quickly.It cured properly after about 5 days but weather had turned cold, so that slowed it down a bit.

Only found warning re not to apply below 10 degrees C after downloading technical data sheet
Needed this to provide a good lining on the internal surfaces of my severely rusted loft cold water tank (tested in 1951, prior to installation). I removed 1.7Kg of crusted rust, the tank base had lost all its galvanised coating; after clean up, I had to leave some hard crusted lumps in situ, prior to applying 2 coats of rust converter. I then put an electric fan heater in loft to warm up the tank (epoxy not to be applied below 10 degrees C), after applying !st coat, I used a hair dryer to speed up drying before 2nd coat (touch dry after 75 mins; pot life is 1-2 hrs). After I let 2nd coat cure for 6 days, there was evidence of a couple of cracks in coating, so I applied an excellent sealant, which can even be applied under water. I recommisioned tank on the 8th day, all okay.

It does what it says on the tin
The colour is spot on and a lovely shade of grey and goes well in the kitchen. I put it down to protect the floor until we decided what floor covering to have. Now we love it that much we are just going to get a rug. The kitchen just feels more hygienic now and will be easier to keep clean. It took longer than 8 hours to be tack free. We could walk on it at 10 hours, but I did make sure it was well covered and I didn't waste any. The tin is 1 ltr and it spread further than I expected. I put it on at night so it had very little impact on us as we were a sleep for most of the drying period. Dead easy to mix and the instructions are really easy to follow.

Sealed a baptistry perfectly
Bought this for the purpose of sealing a church baptistry where the previously tank sealant had worn through and water was leaking through the concrete. The baptistry is approx 3m long x 2m wide x 1m deep and we used the whole can in one coat (liberally applied). It not only looked new again but the paint worked a treat. Where previously we'd lose a fifth of the water in a 24hr period, the water level doesn't now drop.

Excellent service by Ask coatings ltd would throughly recommend
They paint goes on smoothly and does exactly what it says on the tin, couldn't ask for more. They service was excellent ordered the paint on Friday was here on the Monday morning just at the right time to finish the job. Unfortunately I couldn't upload a photo as my camera on phone is not currently working...floor looks like new unlike my phone!

Epoxy resin paint
Good paint but the pot life suggested contradicts the advice for two coats. I separated both pots in two by weight. Remember to subtract approx weight for empty tin.

Not worked for me
Absolute rubbish £100+ to do my garage just wasted! Not worked at all. Garage still floods. Could have been me though as I didn’t realise how quick the resin dried
