7.1 Low Reflectivity
If you notice reduced light reflection, the interior Mylar lining may be dirty. Clean the Mylar with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the reflective surface. Ensure the tent is fully enclosed to maximize light efficiency.

7.2 Light Leakage
While the tent is designed for minimal light leakage, inspect zippers and seams if you observe light escaping. Ensure the zipper flap is properly aligned and closed. If minor pinholes are present, they can often be sealed with light-blocking tape.
