Anyone good at measuring?

Post by Carole »

I'm sure many of you out there have used Hot Spot tape so does anyone know how many 9m rolls i will need to cover a frame 3m x 2m? Also what is the best width to buy thank's.

I bought this 4 roll pack from ebay which was just enough for a 4M x 2M polytunnel. It's probably better to get more than you need than be short. I went for the 25mm wide tape which gave good cushioning when the cover was put over the frame (the tape doesn't wrap round the tubing)

I put my 3x2 up a few weeks ago and used 2 rolls of hotspot tape. I was about a foot short!
