I think the type of lighting should be asatained befor we start chucking out things that could melt.

the best all around reflector material is spectral aluminium, this is not polished aluminum. polished alumium will re tarnish there for it is not sutible as will the stainless steel. mylar is ok but not realy very reflective and will melt causing distortions in the reflector
