My grow area was painted beige and I thought it would be better to paint it white. I was advised this would be easier than using ali foil/mylar/white plastic sheets.
At my local hardware store they had Dulux LumiTec paint on offer, still more than budget flat white paint, but now I have done my room I almost need sunglasses in there. It says twice as reflective as their standard paint, not sure I could quantify or measure it, but it is bright. Elsewhere it says that ordinary paint needs 20% more light to be as reflective.

at least it's better than what I had before, also comes in trade sizes for big rooms
