Hey guys and gals. I went to Lowes, Homedepot, and Walmart in search of cheap mylar, found none. Where do I get it. I did find a type of insulation that is about 1/2 an inch thick, comes in a roll, looks dimpled with aluminum foil almost. Alyone know what metal that is coated with or if it would have comperable reflective properties to mylar? Rather get mylar if I could find it. Thanks!

use flat white paint, works better than foil......... no need to run all over looking for mylar when you can find paint......... otherwise, any hydro store will have it.

You can get the stuff cheap on ebay. I got 1 mil thick 4feet wide X 200 feet roll on ebay for 28 bucks.

I've heard of getting it cheap if you can find like a christmas wrapping made of it or something. Anyone know what type? Does it say mylar anywhere on it? Tahnks.
