Vitax Ltd 5GHS500 Summer Cloud Greenhouse Shading Enthusiast Range, 500ml

Excellent item, shaded greenhouse well

Easy to use

Easy to apply and easy to adjust covering depth, also no problem with cleaning up at end of season , have used various versions of greenhouse shading and this one is as god as any, just dont make it up to be to runny when applying.

After reading some other reviews, I didn't follow the dilution instructions on the label, but used a slightly stronger mix, i.e. 200 ml into a measuring jug, then added water to make it up to 1000 ml. Applied on a warm, dry day, using a roller, took about 15 minutes to do both sides of the roof, the top half of one side and the front of my 8x6 ft greenhouse. A little goes a long way - I still had more than half the mix left, which I've stored in a bottle for next year and I've stll got the other 300ml of the concentrate, which should be good for the next two or three years after that; so all in all, very good value. The application went well, with no runs and the roller left a slightly mottled finish. Overall, very effective - the greenhouse thermometer was reading 34° before starting and had dropped to 20° when I finished.Cleaning the tools afterwards - the roller rinsed out easily, but the roller tray needed some gentle scrubbing to remove the residue; so I'm assuming it will be reasonably rain-proof on the greenhouse - time will tell :)

This is so easy to paint on to the outside of the greenhouse. I use it every year to prevent the plants from being scorched in the greenhouse. It cools the greenhouse, & makes it pleasant to work inside when sometimes it is so hot outside. Very easy to clean off, & if you can't manage to do that then leave it because the rain & snow will remove it for you.I will continue using it. Great buy.

Does the job but mix much less water than suggested otherwise it is was to runny & not easy to apply

This is great but mix it up a bit thicker than the bottle says. I use a tiny roller to apply it which is quicker and neater than a brush. Much cheaper than blinds and it rubs off with a duster at the end of the season.

Easy to apply, (make sure the glass surface is clear of any oily residue to ensure maximum adhesion of shading to glass surface), I applied with a small roller and extension bar from ground level with no problems. It retained it's shading qualities for well over 5 months and was easy enough to remove with a soapy detergent at the end of the hottest part of the year, this is the second year Ive purchased this product, it easily covers 6" x 8" greenhouse with 2 coats with some left over.
