Just curious what you guys use as the semi-reflective flooring that is often used with white backgrounds? Is it just something that I can pick up at home depot or is it something more photography related?

I assume I will be needing a truck. .. what about black? Get a piece of glass or plexiglass. It reflects more and works with any color background. -- Ken

For white backgrounds, like the OP mentioned, tile board is excellent... big and cheap. Jeremy | Gear List | EyeDigress - A Photoblog
