Mr I Can Do That For Half
Im still playing with this stuff.It basically the same but I havent gotten to heat test it yet. I finally found a place to get it in 25 foot rolls for a buck a rol so I grabbed 30 rolls for science .I built a homade reflector and am toying with using this glued to the inside of the reflector as a better reflection to the polished sheet metal but am looking for a good ultra high temp glue that isnt flamable first.As to use it for wall reflectivity its pretty close to standard mylar
