Product Information
Full details
This Garland Tarpaulin Garden Sheet is designed for individuals needing robust, element-proof protection for outdoor items. Its key benefit is superior weather resistance thanks to its tough polyethylene material and welded seams, offering peace of mind for stored goods. A potential caveat is its reliance on eyelets for secure fastening, which might require additional tie-downs for very windy conditions.

FAQs
What material is the Garland Tarpaulin made from?
It is made from tough, cross-laminated polyethylene.
How often are the eyelets placed?
The reinforced eyelets are spaced every metre along the edges for easy securing.
Can this tarpaulin be used as a permanent cover?
This tarpaulin is designed for temporary or seasonal protection against the elements, not as a permanent shelter.
What are the available sizes?
The Garland Tarpaulin is available in three sizes: 3m x 2m, 4m x 3m, and 5m x 4m.
How should I clean the tarpaulin?
Wipe it with a damp cloth and mild soap. Ensure it is completely dry before storing.
Does it come with ropes or tie-downs?
The tarpaulin includes eyelets for securing, but ropes or tie-downs are not typically included and must be supplied separately.
Are the seams stitched or welded?
The seams are welded, providing enhanced durability and water resistance.
Troubleshooting
Tears or small holes developing
For minor tears, consider using a tarpaulin repair kit or strong waterproof tape. For larger damage, replacement may be necessary.
Water pooling on the surface
Ensure the tarpaulin is tensioned correctly and has a slight slope to allow water runoff. Avoid letting water pool for extended periods.
Eyelets pulling through the material
Distribute tension evenly across multiple eyelets. Avoid pulling too hard on a single eyelet. If an eyelet fails, consider a repair kit.
Material becoming stiff in cold weather
Handle with care in freezing temperatures as the material may be less flexible. Allow it to warm up slightly before attempting to fold or move it.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Unfold the tarpaulin and place it over the item(s) requiring protection. Utilize the pre-installed eyelets located every metre to secure the tarpaulin using ropes, bungee cords, or straps. Ensure the tension is adequate to prevent flapping in windy conditions. For maximum protection, allow the tarpaulin to drape slightly over the sides of the item.
Compatibility: This tarpaulin is compatible with a wide range of outdoor items including logs, trailers, roof racks, boats, and caravans. It can also be used for covering garden furniture, machinery, or as a temporary ground sheet. Ensure the size chosen is appropriate for the item being covered.
Care: Clean the tarpaulin by wiping it down with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the material. Allow the tarpaulin to dry completely before storing it to prevent mold and mildew. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and sharp objects.
