best is mylar, after is white paint, and after is aluminium foil. foil may create hot spots if in the wrong side i think. not so sure about it. anyway mylar is the thing

I would use nothing if you can't use mlar or a flat paint. everything else will screw stuff up more than it helped

I think some of those "Space blankets" are Mylar. They are just packaged and called something else is all. You want the ones that have a smooth surface so you can install them flat and clean with as few wrinkles as possible. Just make sure it is Mylar; the packaging should say. White poly liner is the next choice to Mylar. Lotâ??s of people are using it because it cleans easer and installs easer then Mylar.
