Whether or not you buy from this site, have a good look at it.

It will explain thickness here: http://www.allplas.co.uk/acatalog/FAQ.html

Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

Definitely go with the UV inhibited stuff, otherwise you'll be replacing regular poly every 2nd or 3rd year which is a real headache (and expense).

First tunnel can not recommend them enough, first class service.  Type in your sizes, pay and they send the plastic out with a 5 year guarantee.
Thanks

Just had a look at this ---- looks good.

Our mintunnel will need a new cover soon (unless we are very very lucky) so one with a 5yr guarantee is certainly worth considering
