Gwen Crutcher Stace on Jul 29, 2015You could use insolation tape it comes in different colours and is waterproof, just do whatever pattern you like. This is really quick and looks very good.,..and of course don't forget the drainage holes as has already been pointed out.Looking forward to seeing the results.Helpful Reply
