I made my stock tank pool 3 years ago. Best decision I've ever made. 700 gallons of fun. I added a solar heater panel for $25 off Amazon and a 1/2 HP $149 SmartPool sand filter from Walmart.
@@vince8484 I've been searching for ways to keep it from rusting leaning towards liner have a pic and how do you clamp it to the tank or keep the liner from not moving
@@aramiter21 I had a friend of mine that has a pool liner company in Pennsylvaniawho piece together a lot of scraps from larger pool liners that he made. It was one big square that I just laid into the pool and that did like a pastry crust all the way around the edge of the pool. I laid it over the edge of the pool and took two lengths of discharge hose for sump pump and used an oscillating cutting tool to make a slit in it. Almost like the pipe insulation where people use for the winter. Where it has a slit in it and if it's over the copper pipes. Anyway I think they're 20 feet long so I just slit to length of it and press the open end along the edge on the top and almost like clamped the liner on to the tank. Then I trim the outside edge of the vinyl liner. I did use duct tape all the way around the outside of the pool just to hold it in place temporarilythen once you fill the pool you can pull the excess lineup because the weight of the water pushes it all the way around the side. Then you can make your final trim. At that point you'll know where you want to make the holes for the liner because before you put the liner in you've already made the holes in the metal. Be careful when you make the slit in the liner and follow how you would do it for a normal pool where you put anexmark smaller than the intended hole so that the washer fits on the liner and on the metal and there will be no leaks.
My uncle built one of these back in 1987 and never painted it. It's still in his back yard with absolutely no issues. Flex Seal under water for long term will not last. The paint eventually becomes brittle and flakes off. It would be better to get a liner if you're that worried about the looks.
James Lee I was curious about the painting it. I like the plain stock tank look, and the ones I know in the pasture last for years! Easy to keep clean with a brush, and done! Thank you for your comment, color is a preference.
I added Noodles around the rim of the tank. Really dresses up the look and super easy. Cut a slit down the side of the noodle and it pops right on the rim. They have a tendency to shrink in the sun. I went through two sets of 5 last season.
Poly pipe that comes in a roll. Slit that and put it over the rim. Spray foam inside to glue it on. Sure, you'll need to chip off the excess foam if you get too much in there, but it scrapes off easily.
I just became a subscriber bro that video was great and I really felt like you were teaching and talking to a normal guy like me so I could understand thank you so much be blessed
Interested in learning how the FlexSeal is holding up. I used the LeakSeal from Rust-Oleum (aluminum color). I had a lot of rust to start season two and so I am hoping this helps
if you have problems you have to etch the galvanized first, use 60 grit sandpaper, go over entire surface inside then wipe down with white vinegar before using any product , a good self etching primer is good also before adding a product with color. I am using Pond Shield, 2 kits for a 8' stock tank.
Thank you so much sir I just really appreciated your straight real talk especially to a basic guy like me with minimal skills you made it comfortable and easy to understand God bless you and yours stay well
Hi, love your pool. Have you thought about getting a solar cover for your pool? Had an above ground pool for over 20 yrs the solar blanket will heat your water to a comfortable temperature. Figure out what size you need, you can trim it to fit exactly. Our solar blanket heated our pool water sometimes too warm. Highest it ever got was 93.
I used flex seal last year. It looked and felt wonderful...until like the 3rd month when it started peeling off the inside of the pool. it actually started clogging my filter and everything. Thought about just painting the inside blue with some from of paint this year. What did I do wrong?
We've noticed that the finish is moderately fragile. It's holding up just fine, but if you scrape it with something like a pool net, it want to peel a small amount. We'll monitor for the rest of the summer.
It cost quite a bit but after the second year we Raptorlined ours. The tank started to rust. We spend some time in prep and primer the sprayed the Raptorliner in a nice shade of blue. Our pool is for our 6 dogs so we needed a durable coating. So far the raptorliner has fit the bill.
You had me at "two years"... I'm just being funny.. but I really was shocked when you said two years. A person could use a rubber pond liner from a pond store.. that would achieve the same goal but also give you a texture under the water. They sell pond liner by the yard and its pretty reasonably priced
Thank you for this. I was wanting to do the stock tank pool but wanted it to be lined. I had considered using a pool paint, but the info about using the pond liner is a great idea.
@@theiran FYI .. you will have folds along the sides.. its unavoidable unless you get a custom molded one. You might be able to use rubber cement if the folds bother you.
@@GALTwarrior Something like that wouldn't bother me. I'm just wanting something to soften the feel. It's mostly to make it more comfortable to be in for an extended period.
The Tarp company will make any size Pool cover you my need. Cover you pool to keep the heat in and the dirt out. See web site in my reply below, ask about pool covers. Great video. Thanks for sharing.
We did just one coat and let it dry for about 24 hours before adding water. It's held up reasonably well. Some slight peeling if it gets scraped with a net. This pool was used for a season without paint...so the surface might have been a little rougher than a new pool. I'll probably repaint next season and possibly use a primer first or do 2 coats and let it dry a full 48 hours.
It did dry with some pretty minimal, but noticeable "nubs." But on the plus side it definitely has that rubberized feel and I'd say it's smoother and less rough than the galvanized metal.
@@sharonmcmann-morelli4896 that is your best bet. Order now and you might get one by September. All the retailers that I called said the manufacturers are backed up two months.
One question bro the Flex Seal is a good idea but do you recommend cutting a holes for the filters and Jets first or just go ahead and mask and paint around what is your recommendation I'm kind of a dummy when it comes to this stuff forgive me😩🤣
I didn't and I had used my pool for a year before painting. There was some slight chalkiness to the surface and I did power wash the inside to remove any dirty and debris. The paint seemed to adhere well.
No paint chipping off yet, but the black bottom is new for this season. We specifically went with a Flex Seal rubberized paint because it's supposed to adhere well to galvanized metal (I don't think regular paint would work very well). The paint itself was very thick and it took 24 hours to dry. But just based on the temperature increase, even if we had to redo it every year I think it would be worthwhile.
We live in west Texas so I don’t think we need to worry about the temperature of the water, but we are going to paint the inside to help with rusting. The other ways I have seen to paint were using spray paint, but they used a lot of cans so it seemed it would be very pricey! I looked up the flex seal you used and wondered if it would be a cheaper option than the spray paint. We are wanting to paint the inside of ours white though. What’s your opinion?
Tessa Mccormick yes on painting it white to reflect as much heat as possible, or reduce absorption anyway. I have a regular above ground pool and have thought about freezing gallon jugs of water in my spare chest freezer and dropping them in the pool then cycling back to the freezer, in order to cool it down some in late summer when it feels like bath water. I’m not sure on what type of paint, my guess would be either an exterior or marine grade paint.
I think it's actually a lot more dependent on how much sun you get and nighttime temps. I think for regular 100+ degree days and a sunny location -- the water will get warm enough without painting.
dpcmrmoore as someone who lives in North Texas and has a regular above ground pool, heck no, don’t paint it black, if anything paint it white and reflect as much heat as possible. Unless you want a low cost hot tub through the summer then yes, go with black. In August my regular above ground pool with a light blue bottom feels like bath water, not refreshing. The ground insulates a ton. If you built an in ground pool and live in dark soil then you want a white bottom cause the ground will heat up, but if you live on rock your ground will likely be cooler and you may want that darker bottom to heat up your water and extend your season. My previous house had an in ground pool with a white bottom in black clay soil and it would get uncomfortably warm in late July and August when you need a refreshing dip the most. When your nighttime temp is in the 80’s in the summer your water will never cool down lower than the ambient temp, so especially for a smaller body of water with a conductive metal wall expect water temps in the high 80’s to 90’s in late summer.
I’ve heard the flex seal ends up peeling... so plus I think for the best stock you’d have to sand the interior of the pool to make anything stick to it..
Diana Majka that’s what I’ve seen too. I would not recommend sanding galvanized metal, that takes away the protective layer that keeps the metal from rusting and you don’t want to breathe in all that zinc, super bad for your lungs. I saw one stock tank pool where they used a tiny pool liner, which I think is the best option if you’re not leaving it bare galvanized which won’t last as long as it should due to the chlorine. There are also pond liners in any size in white or black, or I guess you could get a small billboard tarp on Craigslist in white, that would work as well and be thicker and more durable than a pool liner.
@@dianamajka1060 if we were to do it again I think I might use a primer specifically designed for galvanized metal first. That should work a lot better than sanding.
We sprayed our pool with flex seal about 12 cans and another 10 cans of lacquer and we let it dry over 24 hours... it’s been a month and it’s chipping and rusting under the paint. We wasted a lot of money on spray paint. Now we have to peel this paint and find another product. What’s the difference between spray flex seal and oil paint you used?
I hadn't heard very good things about the spray-on. The canned paint is much thicker and rubberized, if that makes sense. I didn't do any top coat. One thing I'm thinking that might make a difference is my pool had been used a season without paint -- so the surface was rougher. I've had minimal peeling and no rusting.
You can't paint over the liquid flex seal, so if you don't want the outside of your tank to be white or black, you must use spray on. Most people get the best results with Rustoleum Leak Seal Spray.
Flex seal didn’t even last one season. Started to peel off..at the end of the season barely had any left. I went with a pool paint this year to see how it works out for me. No rust though.
What would the health risk be of using FlexSeal as a liner/paint? I would imagine there is some serious off-gassing from that while baking in the sun. Did you look this data up before applying it?
Mine didn't rust after the first year.. I live in Ohio. The water stayed crystal blue the whole year..just turned the pump on when I got in and off when I got out.

Not sure if it's too late for you, but I saw another DIY stock tank pool and they used an epoxy paint called Pond Shield. It's a bit pricy, though. $80 per kit and you need 2 for the 700 gal tank, plus multiple rollers that you can toss after using.
We have a lot of animals where I live, and I've heard so many stories about the inflatable / quickset pools being ruined by deer running into them, birds landing and popping the ring / liner. I wanted something more study.
