I read your thread some time ago and thought it was a creative home approach. Far better than a failed reflector at least from a safety perspective. Your reflectivity index is not bad at all from my knowledge as well.
It also helped make me aware that a good reflector service was needed and long overdue. I have enough of my own that need restoration.
After extensive examination we felt the longest lasting restoration method possible should be used. Yet still affordable by the customer. We have been chasing equipment since then. New equipment was prohibitive in cost without impacting the prices unreasonably. It has been a hard chase but is just about over.
In our research we stumbled across a way that a reflective surface could be applied at home with a small kit. We may also market that kit if the materials can be aquired at the right price.
It is not the way we will be doing them but reflectivity should approach the originals and look good. We will extensivly test this at some point to see if it is a resonable proposition for the customer. We will not be using this system ourselves.
Much would depend upon the marketability cost factor to make it a practical alternative. What really concerns me is we may have to supply a very special tool that must be returned after use. It is just too expensive to incorporate in a kit. I am not sure yet if the tool can be bypassed. We will try. There are no throwaway versions of it in the marketplace at present. .
We will be trying hard to provide a needed speciallised service for people. Rather than just chasing your money.
I am just beginning to enjoy an expression that pertains to specialised services as well.
We will soon start to know more and more about less and less. Thats until we know everything about nothing. At that point we are true rocket scientists as well
