Whats a good silver 40" or 50" reflector that doesn't peel off too soon?

Ohh thanks! I've seen the impact, doesnt last. The cheap ones all work great in the beginning. Then they start to peel off. I'm interested in a better quality brand that will last. I will pay more for quality. I'm not familiar with the PCB reflector. But Paul c buff doesn't like overseas customers. I cant support them. I want something I can buy direct from BH photo or Adorama.

I been using these mounted/stapled on a wood frame. Thats a good idea. Never heard of mylar, I'll check the hardware for it.
