OK what's the best cheapo method of shading glass please?

The glass is angled and I can't see myself (given how stuffed the shed is) being able to pin sheets on the inside without doing some severe contortions.

ta!

If you can't get to stick summat up you won't be able to apply that pbi paint stuff. You could chuck a bit of net curtain or fleece etc over the bit which needs shading. Weighing it down could be a fandango, as you'd say Laughing

I use fleece and then use canes and masking tape to hold it in place

I am still dithering here. I can get to use paint - have long-handled paint roller!!! But has anyone here used Nixol? Looks rather good (I need the light when it's cloudy as it's not a fully-glazed house) but I'd rather go by a recommendation...

Yes, that's where I spotted it. Good old Two Wests!

I deffo don't want a whole tub. Not for 4 windows... You want to split a tub? (I've also asked over the way if anyone's used it, and might also ask uk.rec.gardening...)
