I have a water bowl made from concrete thats at least 50 years old. A couple years ago, the water froze inside bowl and now it will not hold water. What do you suggest I do to get it to hold water again?
Thanks, Nancy B

You might try RostOleum Never Wet spray paint. I put a link to home depot but you can find it at multiple sources. I've seen it demonstrated on brick and it's an amazing waterproofing system.

I would coat it with a basement wall waterproofing product. I would research my choices at at least two big box DIY stores and even farm&ranch stores.
Use fex seal. It's the miracle to keep water where it's supposed to be.
I was actually wondering if re-coating it with concrete slip would re-seal it? I hate to put anything on it that would cover the original concrete, since it is over 50 years old.
