I recently picked up a fantastic stand that was made by a local hobbyist and woodworker, @Billdogg. He added a layer of Flex Seal to the bottom of the inside of the stand to help contain possible leaks and spills. Unfortunately, it peeled away in a handful of places when I was situating my sump, which you can see in the photo below.
I picked up a can of Flex Seal and I poured it’s entirety into the stand so that I could create a thicker layer to minimize the possibility of additional damage (peeling) when I put my sump back into the stand. However, I could not get the Flex Seal to be smooth; ripples formed and so did ridges, which I could not smooth out with the tools that I have. You can see the results below.
I’m left wondering whether I should get an additional can of Flex Seal and attempt to better create a leveled layer above this. I thought about adding a layer of foam to rest the sump and ATO reservoir on if adding another layer of Flex Seal is not a good idea. However, I don’t have experience with this type of situation, so I’m. It sure which would be best. This morning, I noticed that the second layer adhered surprisingly well to the initial layer, so I’m not concerned with that.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
