NEW INPUT:
I just finished painting my mother cab. It's 1'x2' and 2' high.
I painted the inside white, and I'll hang Mylar on it soon.
My observations? White paint might be great, but it's at least 5 times easier to just hang Mylar on your walls.
I had to paint the inside of the cab 5 times until I was happy with the coating of 'white'. I'm sure I could apply two more coats and it would make an improvement.
My point? Even if you'd give your walls 5 or 6 coats of white paint, Mylar will still outperform it. Mind you, it doesn't take 15 seconds to paint something. So that's quite a while painting walls and stuff.
Why did I paint the inside of the cab if I'm going to hang Mylar? Well, I read that if you're buying the 1mil thick Mylar, you should paint the walls white for best performance. So, although I bought the 2mil thick Mylar, I went ahead and gave it a boost with the white paint.
That's it. End of Scientific Experimentation Notebook.

Again, I don't think WalMart sells it... but order it online... if you can.

^Haha yeah I just went to Wal-Mart and asked em' if they had mylar and they looked at me like I had three heads and asked what it was. :P
