"I wonder if anyone else has an ear so tuned and sharpened as I have, to detect the music, not of the spheres, but of earth, subtleties of major and minor chord that the wind strikes upon the tree branches. Have you ever heard the earth breathe... ?"
- Kate Chopin
On BPL, there was some discussion about reflective coatings. Basically the heat reflection only works when there is an air gap between the heat source (your body) and the reflective surface - if there isn't an air gap, then conduction takes over and you don't the "90% heat reflected back" action.
If you put the reflectix sheet over your legs, then there's going to be air gaps, where your legs are not in contact with the reflectix pad - the reflective properties will kick in there. But if you cover it up with a layer of hammock fabric and then lay on it, you won't get that same effect.
I dig my space sheet in a poncho liner for my uq. Also, a space blanket works well. But not for the real cold, just for the cool

If weight and bulk are not issues, pretty hard to do better than a CCF pad. Inexpensive and a far better r-value than Reflectix.
Of course an UQ is the ultimate goal.
