DoctorTim quoth: "Only the silver reflective tarps give the good temp reduction. All other colors will absorb more rays." Actually, white will reflect more solar insolation than "silver"- using aluminum as the color base. . A truly mirrored surface would reflect more. I proved this myself- at one time I had painted my 71 camper roof silver. Definitely warmer when measuring the temperature of the roof INSIDE. Repainted it white.
