New Court

[Jamie m 668]

Building a new court at the mo what's the best stuff to paint the outside , and same again best for inside ??? I was going to use that flat roofing paint on the outside but as its blacker than black was worried about it absorbing to much heat ?? What you's think ?? Cheers j

[Jamie m 668]

Already slabs but building a wooden one to

[ryaldinhio 4,603]

I was guna go for a slabbed base and leave a half inch gap around the bottom of the wooden frame so I could jetwash out if I needed to. I have sort of been using the green house for now to let em have a run around with me in there aswell for half hour or so a night.

One coat outdoor gloss, that's what I use on my cages, and Cuprenol. http://www.restexpress.co.uk/acatalog/Cuprinol_Shed_and_Fence_Protector.html?gclid=CO62nZenxMcCFQjlwgodO0QATA. Chestnut colour hides the muck

I use two coats of white one coat on inside, and Cuprenol on outside, you could use it on inside of cage, but I like the extra light in the cages in the Winter, makes checking the animals easier when you can see them better.
