Easy to dilute as it mixes readily with water unlike the old powder stuff and just as easy to use. I only need to paint one side of my 10X7 greenhouse and I reckon that the 500ml size that I purchased will probably last me five years, making this exceptional value for money.

Unable to obtain my usual brand of greenhouse shading, I was forced to get a bottle of Vitax. I had to wait for dry conditions on the day and following 24 hours, which in Wales was a long wait, but finally I used it last Saturday 22nd June 2019 and was very disappointed with the product. It was weak and thin in use. Having followed the instructions I coated the glass with it but on entering the greenhouse it had made no difference - still baking hot, whereas the previously used product created an immediate coolness. I waited for another chance to add a further coat, but again it is too weak to cover well and there is still no coolness nearly a week on. Regrettably the mixable sachets at 3 for £2.99 are no longer on the market but this solution at nearly £9 is useless. I hope enough gardeners protest and the sachets are reinstated because we need something better for future years.Read full review

This product seems to have good coverage and provides a very good opacity for shading. Very easy to mix and apply. I used a roller on an extension to apply. Very easy. A fully vertical surface may be more of a challenge. This is without doubt the best shading I have used/applied. I covered a twin wall conservatory roof (generally not recommended) 4x4 meters using only around a litre of the product when mixed. Highly recommended if you are in the market for shading.

good product. made the mistake of putting ttoo much water in the bucket. There are very few instructions, hence the four stars not five; I found that this procedure will work:1, pour in a proportion of the Vitax (i.e. 100ml for 20% of your greenhouse). 2, then dilute gradually with up to hald the makers suggested dose of water. Try the mix and if too strong, 3, then adjust water. It is sloppy, and runs when applied; dont worry, wait a while then re-coat, waiting each time until you have built up the desired opacity. 4, make up further batches. Any spare can be stored in a tub/plastic bottle etc. for later use. Hope this helps. To remove, use a dry duster.
