tin foil
mylar
flat white paint
panda plastic

Probably a long shot....but I'd love to see fiberglass reinforced wall paneling tested. I'd really like to use it in my new cab but am unsure of it's reflective qualities.

It's a thin panel made of some sort of fiberglass reinforced plastic composite. It's tough as nails, waterproof, easy to clean, mildly flexible in long sections, and looks nice. I see it a lot in restaurant kitchens, veterinarian offices, bar bathrooms, etc. I once used it to line the bottoms of kitchen cabinets. It's available in 4x8 sheets at Lowes/HD.

I have some scrap and could send a sample my mail [shrug]. Although I fully understand the security/anonymity complications that probably brings about.
 
i know the stuff. maybe i could do a little damage at home depot. break me off a corner. i like your thinking. if it works it would make for some easy growbox building. build a little frame and slap that around it. done. cool idea.
 
celotex (insulation board) 4x8 sheets at the depot for $10 each.

i have built two rooms 4x4x8 $40 each room + tin tape..:mrgreen:

anyway, i would like to know the reflectivity of this also....thanks FDD your the best.:joint::peace:

you can see the rooms in my sig or gallery for those who do not know what celotex is.
 
So... what? You don't want to continue the tests to, maybe, demonstrate Al foil is easily a close second to some thick aluminized Mylar?

That the findings would be.. how you say here in RIU-speak... a.. faux pas? :lol:

:roll:
