Re: Aquatic Plants Digest V3 #877





Hummerts International sell a product that you might be interested in. 
It's a metalized reflective film used in greenhouses as a reflective
surface for HID (High intensity Discharge) lights.  I've used it in our
greenhouse and it works well and it's sounds a lot cheaper than the 3M
stuff. 1 mil-4' x 25' for $10.10, 2 mil-4'x 25' $18.50  I use the 2-mil
because it's a little tougher.  Just spray the inside of your canopy
with a spray adhesive and attach the film. Good luck:)

There is a product for just this purpose.  It is called Silverlux and it
ismade by 3M.   The hard part is that it costs about $2 per square foot
(that's not too bad) but the mimimum order is 2000 square feet!!!!!!   I
would love to find someone with a roll (48" wide) that would sell by the
inch.   Haven't found anyone yet.   Maybe I can yet find a roll end.
