The Design Engineering Reflect A Gold Sheet is for automotive enthusiasts and DIYers looking to manage radiant heat effectively. Its key benefit is reflecting up to 80% of radiant heat with a lightweight, flexible material, offering significant weight savings. A potential caveat is the need for proper surface preparation for optimal adhesive performance. This product is a state-of-the-art, polymer-laminated glass cloth designed for high-temperature applications, featuring a self-adhesive backing for easy installation and a minimal thickness of 0.17mm.

Design Engineering Reflect A Gold can handle continuous operating temperatures of up to 450° C (842° F).
It reflects up to 80 percent of all radiant heat.
No, it features a high-temperature self-adhesive backing and is flexible, making installation straightforward on most surfaces.
This product is a 12 x 24 inch sheet.
Reflect A Gold is designed to reflect radiant heat, not to withstand direct flame impingement. It is not a fireproof barrier in that sense.
The material has a minimal thickness of just 0.17mm.
While it has a pressure-sensitive adhesive that is designed for ease of application, repeated removal and reapplication may compromise the adhesive's effectiveness.
Ensure the application surface is thoroughly cleaned, degreased, and completely dry before application. Re-apply pressure to the material after installation.
Cut the material into smaller, manageable pieces for complex curves. Apply slowly, smoothing out air pockets as you go. A heat gun on a low setting can sometimes aid in conforming the material, but use with caution to avoid overheating.
Verify that the gold (laminated glass cloth) side is facing the heat source. Ensure the material is properly adhered and there are no significant gaps or tears.
Setup: Ensure the surface area is clean, dry, and free from grease or oil for optimal adhesion. Cut the Reflect A Gold sheet to the desired shape using sharp scissors or a utility knife. Peel off the adhesive backing and carefully apply the sheet, pressing firmly to ensure good contact. Smooth out any air bubbles as you apply.
Compatibility: This material is compatible with most automotive surfaces, including metal, plastic, and composites, provided they are clean. It is designed for use in high-temperature environments typical of engine bays and exhaust systems.
Care: Due to its nature as a heat-reflective barrier, it does not require active care. However, if it becomes soiled, it can be wiped clean with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the polymer laminate.
