Polymer Innovations

If your dam has water in it & is currently leaking then now would be the best time to apply. The pressure of the water leakage creates the suction needed to draw the hydrating polymers into the problem areas & seal the leaks.

If you do not have any water in your pond/dam yet. You can apply Water$ave Plug/Seep as it is filling up after rain, this ensures a neat & even coverage.

If you know where the leak is then you can concentrate your application to that area.

For a fast leak. Apply at 100gm/m2 . A fast leak is a noticeable reduction over days & weeks.

For a slow leak. Apply at 75gm/m2. A slow leak is a noticeable reduction over months.

Remove any deep silt & dense reeds. They can impede the polymers ability to get to the outflows.

Just sprinkle over the surface of the water. On a quiet day with no wind or rain & when the dam is not overflowing. Distribute it as if you are 'feeding the chickens'. At the recommended rates.

Cast out gently no more than 1.5m. By hand, scoop or fertiliser spreader.

Allow 12 - 48 hrs. To hydrate, expand & sink towards the outflows.

Then allow 2 - 10 days. Depending on the rate of leak for the polymers to start incorporating into the soil structures.
