Use panda film. It is a durable sheet plastic with one side black, the other white. More reflective than mylar as well.

the pvc foil i believe is the antidetection stuff, it eliminates certain wave legnths from passing through, like when a chopper flys over with infared vision

Actually not mylar, that stuff is easy to find/search and works well. But in that video, they say they are using "pvc foil" to coat the walls...

Even the floor he said it was pvc foil, and on the ceiling I think thats something completely different from what he put on the walls...

I think that was a generic or foreign name for any reflective, plastic sheeting. PVC Foil: plastic for water-proofing and foil for reflectivity? Panda film does both.

ahh yeah man that's it thanks dude, I did see you mentioned it earlier and I looked it up. It's a little more then mylar but that stuff looks really cool. Mylar has always been what ive known so if this works better, or the same but will coat like that then heck yes. :thumbsup:

Panda is much better than mylar. Mylar is only reflective as long as you keep it clean and it loses reflectivity as you clean it :wtf:. Panda is more reflective than mylar, doesn't lose reflectivity, is easy to clean, is very durable, and is waterproof. My friend uses it for light-proofing, water-proofing, etc.
