Extending the life of a cheap aluminium greenhouse

Covering with polytunnel plastic would work. You would need to buy insulation tape (it a foam backed tape, all tunnel companies have it). It stop the sun heating the metal work though the plastic when it’s tightly pulled over it. If you don’t use it the plastic will just melt. And it’d also stop the greenhouse metal work from piercing the plastic. As greenhouses are much more pointy than tunnels. Also you would need to secure it very well at ground level to stop it blowing off.
