You just kind of just bring the colour back up.
It's amazing to see the difference it can make.
So this came about because when customers ring us from our website, some people ring us on the phone.
They just want to check things.
We always ask, what are you building?
You know, what are you making?
And there's a lot of people taking the old IBC 1000 litre tanks.
These are the kind of, it's a big plastic tank caged in metal, right?
So they're giving it a second use.
Used for like transporting cooking oil or stuff like that.
Some of them can be used for chemicals, so it's very important if you buy one, say, on Done Deal for, I've seen them there this morning, for €40.
You can buy a brand new one for €200, but €40 for a second-hand one, you want to thoroughly clean it out.
And then all you need is an angle grinder, five hours of spare time, and like 2x1 woods to make your frame around it, and then same old decking.
So if you're taking up an old deck and putting down a new one, or if you have a neighbour that's getting rid of an old decking,
then you can actually pin that around it and it looks really, really cool.
I mean... It looks really, really well.
Yeah, surprisingly enough.
Yeah, so you'd put water into it, just fill it up fully with water and you'd need a mug of Milton maybe and just keep it nice and fresh every couple of weeks.
Maybe reduce, get rid of the water about 10%, add Milton and then top it up by 10%.
Today, if I had one at my back, I'd have a gin and tonic in my hand and I'd be sitting in my plunge pool.
