Mylar Outside?

Nice pictures by dcarch in post "fluorescent grow lights" found in the "Starting from Seed" forum.
Makes me wonder if anyone has used Mylar outside during the growing season?
Obviously our Texas and Florida growers get all the sunshine they need and then some but the Pacific Northwest and Alaska growers could use more solar help. Especially this past summer. Would it work?
I'm buying a 25 foot roll to use around a 2ft by 4 ft table so I'll have enough to experiment with but don't want to waste my time or the extra Mylar. Suggestions?
