HEKI Sun Protection & Reflectix

HMS Beagle etc,





covered wagon,

I have no idea why you'd have any flaking of foil under your mattress as it's so far from normal. We have also had Astro Foil under every TC mattress since 2001 and never had as much as one flake or any derogatory issues and it's been extremely effective even in below zero F use. So have the many friends of ours I've exposed them to the reflective bubble wrap and use it and never heard a peep about anything like flaking or failures. They swear by it! True that Reflectix is a cheap knockoff of the more expensive original better 2 sided foil bubble wrap "Astro Foil" which was originally developed for NASA and has and is used in all the space vehicles and very high altitude jet fighters. It's colder up there than anywhere on earth and hotter during the return into the atmosphere than anywhere on earth! If it protects humans etc in those vehicles from freezing or cooking, don't you think it just might really help you in your RV down on the Planet Earth? True that nobody but you knows what you may have used on either side of your bubble wrap at any time but I'm very suspicious!

I know what you are sayin' above.

I have no idea why the reflective coating flaked off and did not do anything out of the ordinary except place it between the mattress and cab over floor. It flaked off as we would pull out bedding to be washed and then tucked cleaned bedding back in place. Only thing I can do is try to ask Ace Hardware where it was manufactured and post it here.

Tthere seems to be a surprising amount of cancer running around. At least with the many people we know and associate with it is quite alarming..
