4. Dig out the support edge. Now dig a small edge on the edge of the pool of your garden pond, on which you place the grid. Create a flat surface 15 cm wide around the pond.
5. Apply rust protection. Coat the pond grid with an anti-rust primer after you have freed it from rust with sandpaper.
6. Roughen the pond grid. When the anti-rust primer has dried properly after eight hours, lightly roughen the pond grid with sandpaper.
7. Paint the grid. Now paint the grille really thick with a color of your choice. It gets classic with black color.
8. Mount the grille. After the paint has dried, mount the grid on the support edge around your pond. The weight of the grid now disappears just below the surface of the water.
