I covered a 12'x16' peaked greenhouse with a $121 roll of Film and had quite a bit left. This is the third winter and it still looks like new http://imageshack.us/a/img602/776/197.jpg .

I took a look at that film and might go that direction. How do you think it would hold up in our hot South TX by the Gulf of Mexico sun? It is very hot in the summer with the heat and humidity.
