A molded, cured translucent, substantially rigid glass fiber reinforced plastic sheeting material, comprising:
- a glass fiber reinforced plastic first layer;
- and
- a reflective second layer extending over a major portion of an area of said first layer, said reflective second layer comprises a laminate of first and second films of flexible plastic material and a thin metal film, said thin metal film being applied onto a first surface of said first film and being bonded to a first surface of said second film by an adhesive layer, a second surface of said second film being incompletely polymerized and being chemically bonded to said first layer before said second surface of said second film is cured, said metal film being sufficiently thin so that said metal film is capable of transmitting a substantial quantity of visible light and is also capable of reflecting a substantial quantity of sun heat radiant energy.
