I'm trying to find out where I can get a big roll of reflective plastic. It comes behind fluorescent tubes in the 2' or 4' fixtures. Any ideas ? Or let me know what its called ? Please and thanks

Why's it hard to handle ? Will it crinkle like foil ?

Mylar is better if it is hammered but if it is not it can cause burn spots as light dispersion is magnified. Panda film is cheaper and only a few % less relfective than mylar. I beleive Mylar is 97-98% Light reflective value while Panda film is only 93-95% LRV.

Panda Film is cheaper and easier to build with. Mylar does crinkle and generally is harder to work with.

Best of Luck
