Does anyone know where I can obtain a small quantity (approx 12 sq ft) of the above material, I used to use it many years ago lining controlled environment chambers for increasing the reflected light within. I'm retired now and out of touch. I need to buy some for a small box I'm making. Tom

I've been solidly searching for hours, have just found this 5mins ago.

is more expensive tho' ;-)
"Space Blanket" from outdoor shops?
I'd advise the slightly more expensive long life stuff as it's easier to work with when lining boxes etc. :-)

Use tinfoil and evostik. Or te self adhesive foil tapes sold for sealing celotex...
Or ..I could go on...
