Its Ace Hardware brand paint. It will never come in contact w system water. A liner is put inside the trough making it water tight. The soft spots were
In one corner so i just addded an extra block of wood under a couple of legs. You can save money by placing it on the ground versus elevating it but having it up is earier on my back!

What brand paint is it? Is that also fish safe? Looks cool. What did you do about the soft spots? If you had to do it over, what materials would you change out?
