Step 2Insert fish tape and close up the ribbon
Now through the gap you left in the ribbon loop feed the fish tape through the tube. (note you can make you life much easier by filing the sharp corners off the end of the fish tape. Once you have popped out the other side leave at least a 3 inch overlap for the tape before you cut it with the side cutters.
Next use the tie wire (you may be able to get away with tie wraps here I do not know but it may be worth a try) to join the two ends of the fish tape once you have the cloth taught but not so taught that it potato chips the reflector or chroma key. If you tie it up with 2 or three tie sections the fish tape will not slip (at least so far for me). One thing to note to is that it seems the maximum size for this kind of thing is about 5' x 3' after that they get quite floppy.
Sew closed the opening in the tape.
Voila!
Ok, ok yes there are wrinkles but as long as you dont care neither does the light that it reflects. Think of it this way you pay 270.00 for the wrinkle free version. I prefer to use that 270 for things like feeding the family and a beer or two.
Also yes I know there is a green key with a reflector mixed together in this ible... I am pretty sure you can figure things out. If not watch the video at the beginning at time 6:28 to figure things out
Now to fold these up place one hand on the reflector palm side towards you and one palm away from you and rotate them together as if you are clapping and it should roll up neatly
Here is a youtube vid on how to do it
