I would prefer aluminium tape as reflective material! It's cheap and don't get curly! You could put it everywhere in the box! Good for light proofing your box ;)

foil tape is not better its the same its still foil and that stuff isn't cheap either Mylar or white poster board, if you have no money inside out bags of chips are pretty much mylar, the idea is to get something that reflects light but does not hold heat, metal holds heat, even the chrome duct tape would work better than foil, not the Grey the chrome

Don't worry about the foil. Just be sure to use the dull side. There is no way in hell your going to get hot spots or burns using CFLs with the foil. So I wouldn't sweat it at all...

foil just isn't worth the time. get a pint of flat white latex paint. paint all walls of your interior. flat white paint is MUCH more reflective than foil... especially the "dull" side WTF why even use it?
