where to find black buckets?

Yeah duc tape my friend works well to stop the light threw the bucket

 

^That's not what he asked.

chronic- you can get 3.5 and 5 gallon black buckets at discount-hydro.com

 

ebays got them....i dont know how much 3 gal buckets normally are but on ebay its like 8$. http://cgi.ebay.com/New-Black-5-Gal...oryZ3175QQssPageNameZWD1VQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem there are alot more that i saw, this was jsut the first one that popped up.

 

Duct tape does not work well at all to seal light. Get some aluminum foil tape (also used on ducts). wrap your bucket and lid (even do the bottom) with this type of tape. Place a flash light in your bucket, flip your bucket upside-down or install the lid, turn off all the lights in your room, and check for leaks. I would use spary paint before resorting to normal duct tape.


Peace, R.

 

yeah i agree....just make them its cheaper and each roll of tape will prolly last u 3-5 buckets....try spray painting them black first....could help out a bit, and the reflection of the foil will help redirect light away.....

 

aluminum foil tape is probably ur best option a roll is like $6.72 at walmart

 

bro if you are looking for the buckets, your best place would be a construction site, free and plenty to choose from
