home depot has this shiny insulation for water heaters that's 99.9% refective... it's kiinda expensive, but... its like 40 bucks for a decent sized roll.

If you're gonna do the water heater jacket, shop around. I've got one and am a cheap bastard, so know I wouldn't have paid anywhere near 40 for it. Maybe 15.

Best bet is to buy mylar online.

or you could just paint your grow space white until you find an alternative to mylar.

i've looked around and i can't find it for shit.




U.K all the way.

The white roof coating paint has the best reflective properties, 95% +

Haha.

Recycling that old paint is a good idea tho, no point leaving it in the shed to become all hard and icky.
