after using high-quality Mylar for 3-4 years, never again ... after cleanings, it dulls badly, and doesn't reflect nearly as well as Panda plastic, or flat-white paint ... just the other day I made comparisons with my light meter, wasn't even a contest ... I'm building my new cabinet with flat-white paint :smokin:

Just go to home depot and buy 4'x8' sheets of 1/4" white board for $11.00 each. sturdy, no painting, easy to clean.

I built mine out of this stuff and before I sealed the cracks with aluminum tape any light leak was like a laser beam with a 600w mh in a 4'x4'x8' box. Mylar is only an added expence that is not needed IMAO.

I took my light meter to Home Depot about a month ago, and checked those very panels you speak of :thumbsup: they reflected better than anything else I could find in the store ... I would buy them , but am going with an oak finish paneling, (painted white on reverse side), purely for cosmetics ... :smokin:
