About to Pull the trigger!

Hey guys. So I have a friend that is about to start a small grow room and is fairly confident he can do it but needs certain things cleared up. He has a closet about 3ft deep, 3ft wide, and 6ft tall. He told me he is plannin on a building a cabinet to put in the closet to fit about 2 - 3 plants for personal use.
This has to be super stealth

For the light = http://www.htgsupply.com/viewproduct.asp?productID=48631 ....with the easycool 6" reflector

So here are the questions...

1) What is the best lining for inside the cab..white Mylar??? white paint???

2) He wants to also line the cab with that material that doesnt show up on thermal helicopter flybys. what is it n where can it be purchased

3) the STANK. There is no way to vent the odor. He is simpily working with the closet and the cab in the closet. what is the best plan of attack to tackle this problem? He has read alot about this but its still confusing. Ductin, fans, carbon filters, bucket of febreez..HELP

thanks in advance guys much appreciated.

As far as what he should line it with, whatever he can afford. White paint will work fine, or another cheap alternative is to go to the camping section at walmart and get an emergency blanket and use that. For the smell, I purchased some odor killer from my local grow shop for fairly cheap. It's called odor killer and it's a little tub of gel crystals that are saturated with a liquid that it says is derived from plant oils. It doesn't have an odor really, and it when it dries up you buy a jug of the liquid to pour onto the dry crystals to rehydrate or reactivate them. You can also spit it up by putting into solo cups and placing them in different spots in the grow area. I just purchased it, but I've heard good things about it for smaller grow areas so it just might work for your "buddy".

1. mylar is best (its silver btw) but white paint is easier and works almost as well.

2. there is no way you have to worry about thermal imaging. space heaters put out 1000 watts - what are the popo going to do - search every house with a space heater? its large commercial grows with 10,000 plus watts that have to worry about thermal imaging.

3. another product in addition to what was suggested earlier is ona gel.

You can check out my cabinet in my sig, sounds kinda the same deal.

Paint is messy. I prefer black/white poly - aka Panda film.

Forget about helicopters. For a grow your size you can pretend the Wright brothers were aborted.

Carbon filters. They eliminate the odor effectively. Yes, you'll need fans and duct work so start learning. it is the only real answer.
