here for step-by-step instructions! We also have a great
installation kit
that contains about everything you need for installing skimmers and ponds, silicone for
sealing, and expandable foam to use for securing rocks around waterfalls and streams.
To splice or join together 2 pieces of pond liners you need Seam Prep to clean and
activate both pond liner edges, 2-sided quickseam tape (3 or 7" wide), a roller to
roll smooth the joined liners and make sure there is a good adhesion, a bead of lap
sealant to go over the overlapped edge, and a piece of cover strip to go over the
overlapped edge. Applying another bead of lap sealant over both edges of the cover
strip is a good idea as well. You can find all those products listed below. Do
see the splice kit installation instructions for complete,
step-by-step instructions.
Part of the hint for a successful mending of the two liners is to have the area cleaned
really well and roll out the seam tape to make sure there are no air bubbles. It
also helps if the sun is shining and/or is above 65°F. Apply the seam tape like the
instructions show, from one end to the other. The seam tape is VERY, VERY sticky
and once it touches a surface it is there for good, so be careful on what you are doing
and how you are unrolling the seam tape and unroll a few inches at a time. The seam
tape has a waxed paper type of paper that the tape is rolled up in so you can press down
on the waxed papered seam tape and then once in place, gently pull off the waxed papered
paper. It's kind of tricky so do a little at a time and don't have any
distractions. Really press over the entire tape over and over before you peel off
the waxed paper to make sure there is a good adhesion.
