Setup: Your Gorilla Tub Mini Shallow 5L Green arrives ready for immediate use. Simply remove any packaging. It is recommended to rinse it with warm, soapy water before its first use, especially if it will be used for non-food grade materials that require cleanliness. Compatibility: This tub is compatible with a wide range of materials, including soil, sand, water, household cleaning solutions, gardening waste, small tools, and various DIY mixes (e.g., small amounts of cement, paint). Its flexibility allows it to be used in conjunction with garden scoops, trowels, and brooms. Always avoid storing harsh chemicals that could degrade LDPE plastic. Care: To ensure the longevity of your Gorilla Tub, clean it regularly with warm water and mild soap. A brush can be used for stubborn residues. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the surface. While weather-resistant, prolonged exposure to extreme direct sunlight may eventually affect the plastic's color and flexibility over many years. Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
