Hi All

Has to be a conspiracy. Last week I treated a shed with Creosote Sub.
Looked at the coverage on the can & decided 2 x 4 litres would be
easily enough.

Ran out leaving an area 18" x 24" untreated, had to buy another 4 litres.

Think about it though. The same happens with emulsion paint, wallpaper
paste, mortar, plaster, you name it. How many of us have three
quarters of a tin of something in the garage?

They must know how big the average shed, room etc is. Exactly how big
- then they deliberately package the stuff it 'too big' or too small'
containers.

A why is one bottle of wine not quite enough, but two is too much?

What do you think?

I'm convinced of it.

Also wine boxes say that the contents will keep for 3 months. They don't ;-)
