How To Seal Painted Ornaments In The Tank

[JDs4me]

I need to seal a couple of my tank ornaments after painting - is it best to seal with some sort of epoxy resin? Any ideas as to where I can source epoxy resin if thats the way to go (in the UK)?

Thanks!

Depending on what you want to seal I think you would be better with a pond sealer like G4. epoxy resin needs to be applied under strict conditions at a temperature of +80 Degs or at least heat passing over it as it cures, failier to achieve this can result in blooming and the resin becoming opaque and spoiling your work. Your work also needs to 100% dry.

however if you still want to use it its available on ebay.
