Just compare the inside temp difference between a black car and a white car in the heat of the day. They make paint for plastic, as most auto bumpers are now made out of different types of plastics. Paint the outside silver, aluminum or white.HTH Keith & Shawn (Gold Medal Winner)

I thought so too, except that the other day I was looking at some buildings at a Tuff Shed sales lot and inside their newest buildings, the sheathing was lined with a reflective foil.

They claimed they were using it on all their 2011 buildings, and was supposed to make the inside of the buildings ?% cooler.

Whether that's true or not, I don't know.
