Reflector Material

[Chris_911]

Hi, hopefully someone can help....

I want to get some sheets of white material that can be used as fairly large (say 5' x 5') reflectors. I'm only interested in indoor use so am thinking of some lightweight but rigid material - foam, corrugated plastic, etc.

Can anyone point me in the direction of something suitable?

Ta.

Try sheets of polystyrene – Cheap n cheerful and fine for indoor use. You can also paint them matt black and use them as backdrops, flags etc.
B&Q do it, or try Wickes, as below....

Thank you Sam - that's a good idea.

Try Kingspan as well, silver foiled on one side and a little more robust than standard polystyrene.

if you tape two big pieces together with gaffer tape like a hinge, they will be self supporting too.

Hi

I use the sun reflecters for car windows. The cost a euro from super markets.
