  1. Yo, has anyone ever considered using retrorefective stickers as seen on heavy equipment as a reflector in a grow area?
    I am thinking about using a whole bunch in a grow cab. I have access to some.

    heres a pic in a well lit room with my Nikon Coolpic camera with the flash ON and in broad daylight conditions:

    heres one with the flash off:

    heres a different piece of heavy equipment sticker with flash off in broad daylight conditions:

    and one with the flash on in broad daylight conditions:

    also here is one that I took in a completely dark closet with the flash on:

    I think what I am looking for is any encouragment that these type of retroreflective stickers will provide performance gains due to their "retroreflective design".

    I understand that all stop signs and road signs are retroreflective. So are license plates I think. And they are fucking bright at night when you shine a light at them.

  2. I encourage you to buy a $15 lux meter and do some quantitative experiments. :)
     
  3. From what research shows, mylar, flatwhite paint reflect aprox 95% of the light...your really not going to benefit mam...dont waste your time and money...but if you are curious i would like to see also..
