epoxy resin for this purpose is all fairly similar, it ranges from cheap stuff to super expensive stuff, but the price tends to reflect the strength more than anything, and you dont need strength in this case. so just find some cheap stuff, its on ebay sometimes. or go for a dedicated pond paint/sealant like A1 or G4. G4 is polyurethane based, but A1 is epoxy based. they both work very similarly.

lol, 2 days is far too soon to give up! im about 3 days in to my fake tree, not 3 full days, just 20 mins here and there then waiting for expanding foam to set. il get some pics up later in the week of it. it takes some patience, but the shape is getting there and ive not done anything difficult. the next part is the tough bit, grouting a 6 foot tall tree!!
