i am in the process of building a grow room in a storage building. I know all the different wall surfaces u can use & their reflection values. But i am concerned about IR from above. lowes has a foil coated bubble wrap insulation that has a 97% heat reflection that is better than the C3 mylar detection foil at 90%. But i know the foil is not the best light reflector for the walls what is a grower to do. Think i could paint it white to up the reflection values and keep the heat reflection also.
 
What i would do it use regular paper backed bat insulation. The staple up some panda plastic as you ceiling and walls. That would be a nice setup, but with it isulated so well you better get some venting going.
