Since I have gone over to an alcohol stove, I would like to make a pot cozy. Rather than buying a large roll of reflectix that I will not use up, does anyone have enough for a 12cm Imusa pot they'd like to get a few bucks for?

I am in the market for a large roll about 30 feet.

If you don't mind a few creases, car windshield sunshades are about $
7 for the reflectix kind.

30 feet by "what"? Lowe's sells various lengths and widths (Home Depot, too, I think). I think their widest width is 4 feet...can't remember how long, though. 30 feet would make a heck of a big personal shelter, but it won't breathe (gasp, wheeze, pant)....

You can get a 16"x25' roll from Home Depot for $16.

Anyone have any extra that they'd also send me gratis?
need enough for a toaks 750ml ti pot.
any thin foam will work. also windshield sunshades work great.

SB x 4 feet - OK I am going down to by the whole role
Next a micro thin layer of micro closed cell phone to be connected to the stuff.

NO pot involved - a stealth camper vehicle, A Dodge caravan and a cot with winter capabilities.

I've used the windshield "sunshades" on all of the windows of my Aerostars for years - mostly to provide shade for the dogs (it's AMAZING how much cooler the interior stays when the sun can't heat up the interior) - and for privacy when camping. Not too successful with "winterizing" the van, because without heat, no amount of insulation will hold in your body heat, and with a heat source, you have to provide both fresh air AND positive ventilation (read "a stovepipe of some sort") or you'll wake up dead! Now, if you made a Reflectix cocoon for yourself....

Buy one of those insulated, reusable shopping bags that have the foil, inner layer. You can cut the bag to make a cozy and sew it together instead of taping. The cloth outer layer will act like a pot holder.

My wife made me a cozy using Insulbrite, a material used in pot holders. Tried to add photo, but it wouldn't take.

Hey Tuck, looks good brother. I fixed this one today for a MLD 475 mug.PA310457.jpg
Also, for those who might be interested, you can DIY your own with this kit from Anti Gravity Gear. That's what I did.
