Mirrors instead of Mylar

[tr4p4rtist]

I'd love to try this one out. After all, mirrors are much more reflective than anything out there on the market.

Mylar and the dull side of foil are all well and good, but I believe the mirrors would offer more light retention. I base this theory on the fact that if you drop a hps and then surround it by mirrors, you can damn near see it from space.

The only possible problem I could forsee, would be with heat. That would easily be remedied by a good air flow. But would the light be too much? I don't want to have my babies burnt up.

Comments, experiences, ideas all welcome

Check out the white roof coatings, claim to be +90% reflective and only $15+ per gallon.
