Title: Anyone used Nixol paint on a greenhouse?
Post by: Yana on May 15, 2014, 07:28

I'm looking to shade my greenhouses and last year my attempt at attaching a liner to the greenhouse failed miserably. What are anyone's experience of using Nixol please?
Thanks

Debris netting and small bulldog clips on the outside worked for me. I have just removed it to give more sunlight to the peppers.

Thanks, I'd thought of some kinda netting on the outside as a best result, but was worried about scratching the polycarbonate sheeting, its kinda expensive!

I managed to get it quite tight and have not seen any scratching as a result of it being there.

Thank you for the pic cadalot, I can see that your netting looks very secure.
