Different grow space wall linings

Would anybody see a problem if I were to coat 3 walls and the ceiling with matt white paint or maybe mylar and then hung a door made out of black and white on the front - or should all surfaces have the same covering with the same reflectivity?

Thanks for looking

If you want the best use MYLAR (2 mil thickness).

It has a higher reflective index versus white paint (matte or otherwise).

White paint is an easy clean up as a plus.

Mylar can get spots from splashing shit on it and requires more visual care but MYLAR kicks ass.

Whilst I don't doubt that mylar is the best product if used correctly as it is the most reflective of the choices I am not sure that it is worth the extra expense.

But in any case, i'm not asking whether I should use mylar OR paint, what I want to know is are there problems such as hotspots or anything else with mixing the coverings used within one grow space.

In that case, there is no problem mixing and matching reflective surfaces.

The only shit which causes burn spots is aluminum foil. That stuff is garbage.
