Hi everyone,
I`m redocorating the house, and have damaged some reflective material
while removing it from behind a radiator. It`s a foam type material
with
a foil covering on one side, to reflect heat from the wall. IIRC when
it
was first put there it did make a difference to the temperature in the
room, so i`d like to replace it. Any ideas for a cheap source of this
stuff?

Thanks in advance for your help!
The local pound shop for tinfoil ! That's all it is and it doesn't make
much difference behind a radiator. The foam part might act as an
insulator.
I would look in B&Q for foam or polystyrene and local shops for tinfoil
and
PVA glue.


I'm sure Screwfix have rolls of this in their catalogue

They sure do, with thanks to the other poster who pointed me in that
direction. Now got it delivered, and just waiting until I get round to
putting it in :-)
