Title: BLACK Cubos
Post by John on Feb 12^th, 2011 at 10:29am

Hi everybody.
Just a quick question,
Does anybody know where to buy BLACK cubos/ I see them on ebay in the UK but don't know where to get black ones in Spain.

Thanks in advance,
John.

There's a place in Masdenverge that will sell cubos but it depends if they have black in stock. They're ex paint solvent containers so need a good wash out but not a biggy as you wouldn't be using them for drinking water. Presumeably you want black to prevent algae growth ? An alternative is to install them under cover. They also have some whilte ones in a thin metal case which have similar benefits.

Hi John
we have used the normal white ones painted with acylic black paint - have survived 3 summers and no peeling - a bit fiddly but doable!
