depends on the size of the bottle
 they do different sizes, i think they do the 500ml right up to the 1 gallon sized containers. Read the bottle about the coverage and then work it out from there. Dan |

I think I'd want to be a bit wary of high pressure though! I can imagine blasting the cloth weave apart... |

dont worry about that, just dont get the nozzle to close, it works well but you need to be careful.

Dan, I've only seen it in 500ml so I'll have a read of the back. Jim Regarding pressure-hosing covers...just done my very slimey, canvas one and it worked a treat. Nozzle about 6 inches from fabric was fine... don't hose your fingers whilst doing it though - very sore!

Just done my Merlin cover!
I must confess I started using fabsil..but it was too expensive and and did very little coverage I then used Travis Perkins..waterseal... a bargain compared to the cost of the fabsil £14 for 1 against £14 for 5litres although the waterseal uses a white spirit base..opposed to the Fabsil's Naptha..it absolutely honks...do it outside on a sunny..not in the sitting room |

oh..and it dissolved the glue holding the velcro together
so if you have some dodgy stitching..it'll fall apart |
