TIP: The online Bushwalk Inventory System can help bushwalkers with a variety of bushwalk planning tasks, including: Manage which items they take bushwalking so that they do not forget anything they might need, plan meals for their walks, and automatically compile food/fuel shopping lists (lists of consumables) required to make and cook the meals for each walk. It is particularly useful for planning for groups who share food or other items, but is also useful for individual walkers.

Looking for a local (preferably Melbourne) source for 4mm metalized bubble wrap. i.e metalized on BOTH sides.
Application: Pot cosies and food pouches.

http://www.thermawrap.co.uk have Loft Wrap which is the type of product I am looking for. It is CFC and HCFC free.

The easiest source is the car windshield sun protectors available from Big W, KMart and all motor vehicle type shops (Repco, Autopro etc) and many service stations. I have made several cosies with it. I also have an AntiGravity Gear cosie so can confirm that it is largely the same material. The windscreen sun protector material seems just a fraction stiffer but functions just the same.
