Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this sheeting clear or black?

This specific variant is standard heavy-duty polythene, which is generally clear; however, the product line includes black options for specific light-blocking applications.

Can I use this to cover my car?

While it can protect from dust, it is not breathable, so it is not recommended for long-term car coverage as it may trap moisture and lead to mold or paint issues.

How do I secure the sheets to a wooden shed roof?

Use galvanized roofing nails with plastic washers or timber battens to ensure the sheeting stays in place without tearing at the nail points.

Is the sheeting UV resistant?

While durable, this sheeting is intended for standard utility use; extensive, multi-year direct sun exposure will eventually cause degradation.

Can I paint over this sheeting?

Polythene is non-porous, meaning paint will not adhere well and will likely peel or flake off if applied.

Troubleshooting

Sheeting is wrinkled or creased upon arrival

Lay the sheeting flat in direct sunlight for a short period to allow the warmth to soften the material and remove creases.

Material blows away in windy conditions

Use heavy-duty landscape pins, bricks, or weighted bags at regular intervals along all edges to secure it firmly to the ground.

Punctures occur during use

Clean the area around the hole and apply a high-quality, weather-resistant repair tape to seal the puncture.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High versatility for garden and construction tasks
  • Excellent for weed control and soil warming
  • Durable enough for heavy-duty rubble protection
  • Available in multiple large-format dimensions

Cons

  • Smaller lengths (up to 7m) arrive folded rather than on a roll
  • Requires proper securing methods to prevent wind uplift
  • Not intended for long-term permanent roofing use

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal results, ensure the surface being covered is free of sharp, protruding objects that could puncture the material. When using as a ground cover, secure the edges with landscape staples or heavy stones to prevent the wind from lifting the sheet. If the material arrives folded, spread it out in a warm area for an hour to allow the folds to relax for easier installation. To maintain the sheeting, rinse off any dirt or debris with a hose and allow it to dry completely before folding it for storage. Avoid using harsh solvents when cleaning, as these may degrade the polythene material.
