that’s what I use on my little greenhouse….

at 6 mil, it’s thicker than plastic trash bags, so it’s sturdy and hard to rip….the UV protection is really nice, since ‘just plain plastic sheeting’ will WORK, but you’ll change it for new every year,,, it gets crisp in the sunlight and crumbles away…….. the UV protected lasts at least four years!….not sure about the ‘thermal’ unless it’s something new, like it not transfering your inside heat outside so quickly….. might have something ‘reflective’ to heat in it…. not sure….
custom cut?…. length, yes… it comes in standard widths… mine is 25 ft wide (ten ft to the peak and then back down and the excess is for rolling at the baseline)… then I need the length of the greenhouse plus the covering on the front and back, so that’s ten ft plus ten and ten… so they cut me a thirty ft chunk off the 25 ft width and send it on…..
