Mylar is a b to clean for me it gets spots when you foliage feed or spray fing anything in there. And then it tears when you try to wipe it down and boy will you be cursin up a storm putting that crap up by your self. I have used them both and yes mylar is a little more reflective but its a pain IMO and if its not completley secure it will rustel in the wind and that will make ya curse up a storm 2 laying in bed hearing that lol that stuff has pissed me off more than once and white paint never

have have been using panda film for a couple years now and i am very happy with it. panda film is the way to go if painting is not an option.

I'm looking to buy a tent right now, because of cleaning issues I'm thinking of one that has white plastic on the inside. Despite Mylar having just slightly better reflectivity, it isnt that big a deal to me as cleanliness and the difference in reflectivity doesnt seem large enough to make my small area yield more. Anyone used a Mylar tent? Will it rustle in the wind?

My only question is this, what do the pro’s use? Take a look into the biggest/best commercial cannabis companies and one thing you don’t see is “Mylar”. That settles it for me but if you’re not convinced, try doing your research. White disperses light evenly along with heat. From what I understand NASA created Mylar and in my opinion we are not getting the same material they used from places like China for a couple hundred bucks.

The “pros” put in enough cross lighting that they really don’t even need any type of covering on walls.
