hi can anyone help me out ?

i have just bought of eBay a new parabolic shade .there is some instructions on assembling the shade but it doesn't say which film color goes on the under side (bulb side ) ,on the reflector panels which you have to put all together there is a blue plastic film on one side & a gold plastic film on the other which you have to remove before turning on the power ? IS IT THE BLUE SIDE FOR THE BULB .or GOLD ON THE OUTER .

if you know what i mean lol.

make sure to remove all plactic coatings or bad things can happen. generally the blue side is what is used when a metal comes protected by it.
