Mylar Alternative's?

[Schweed]

Hey i am in the process of building my first grow-box out of a hollowed out speaker. I have everything i need to start building except Mylar. I've read that tin-foil and emergency blankets can cause hot-spots. Looked in two garden stores and Lowes /Home depot and couldn't find any. Can't Paint white because i only have access to the speaker through a hole. Would silver Christmas wrapping paper catch fire? I would appreciate any suggestions.

use flat white latex water based paint, apply it with a sponge. Surely your arm can get through this "hole" right?

[Schweed]

Yes it can and a sponge would work for applying it thanks for the idea. Any ideas on the christmas wrapping paper? i would like to use painting as a last resort.

What kind of home owners insurance do you have?

[Schweed]

Haha that big of a fire risk huh? guess ill be grabbing the paint.

[scrumby]

something like that would distort over time, add the moisture of plant watering and it would be a mess by the first harvest.

Okay thanks for the help scrumby.
