I dont think trash bags would keep all the light out unless you used multiple bags. what i did was used spray adhesive and glued foil all over it, then finished up what I could get with foil tape. It was really easy and only cost like 6 for the foil tape, and like 2 for the foil the sprat adhesive i already had.

I would do one coat of black spray paint and one coat of white spray paint on the outside and 1 coat of black on the inside. I used 2 coats of black on the inside and outside and I don't have any problems 
I sprayed my outsides black as well, did about 10 coats of spraypaint on each bucket. I considered spraying inside but was concerned about chemicals from the paint fucking with the plants. I could just be parinoid thoughI would do one coat of black spray paint and one coat of white spray paint on the outside and 1 coat of black on the inside. I used 2 coats of black on the inside and outside and I don't have any problems
