So being generous that's 2.6m2 per litre coverage! The manufacturer quoted approximately 8m2 per litre... It's not fully gone off yet but it does feel good. I've got another 5lt coming to finish this pen and do the other. I expect the coverage quote is for smooth concrete whereas the blocks are much more grainy and porous than a concrete slab or render or whatever. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Pretty proud of my garden though too, so you might have to suffer my raspberries and roses! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The stuff is too pricey to risk it not adhering well. Last thing ya want is a f***ing great sheet or rubber peeling off the wall after a few months. Mind, that still could happen, I'm not a decorator and the brickies cleaned out my funds to be able to pay for one Quote Link to post Share on other sites
