Taping glass windows
« on: March 03, 2019, 12:42 »
The historians among you will know that in wartime windows were taped to prevent flying glass.    What tape do you think I could use to do  some glass in the greenhouse.  I am really worried that it will go and shatter onto the gravel,plants etc.   Dangerous, especially for animals feet.   The greenhouse rebuilder is booked until 24th June, when he starts mine.
Your advice will be most appreciated,   Mrs Bouquet

How about masking tape? Your windows need to be reasonably clean beforehand but it should work.
I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.

I risked life and limb, and have now used brown parcel tape, all over the glass, crosses, ups, downs and every -which- way.    Hopefully it will all hold until the rebuild at the end of June  :nowink:  Thanks for your help, regards,  Mrs Bouquet

Hi,

I've used polytunnel repair tape on a broken Paine and it's last two years so far.
