AquaForte Impermax Paintchlore — Chlorine‑Resistant Waterproofing Coating

(Professional membrane for ponds, pools, tanks & water features)

Product Overview

AquaForte Impermax Paintchlore is a high‑performance, chlorine‑resistant liquid waterproofing membrane designed for ponds, pools, aquaculture tanks, water features, and any installation exposed to chlorinated or chemically treated water. Once cured, it forms a seamless, flexible, fully bonded coating that protects surfaces from leaks, chemical attack, and long‑term degradation.

Key Features

• Chlorine‑resistant formulation — ideal for ponds, pools, and tanks using chlorinated or sanitised water.
• Seamless liquid membrane — no joints, overlaps, or weak points; perfect for complex shapes.
• Highly elastic (up to 400%) — absorbs movement and prevents cracking.
• Exceptional adhesion — bonds to concrete, render, brick, metal, polyester, and stable substrates.
• Chemical & UV resistant — long‑lasting protection in demanding environments.
• Fish‑safe once cured — suitable for koi ponds and aquaculture systems.
• Professional‑grade durability — designed for long‑term immersion and heavy use.
