Which is better for a metal building?

The BlueTex Pro 2mm. Its 62-inch width and 300 sq ft roll are built for 60-inch on-center frames, and it includes seam tape and screws. The FUTUREORYY sheet is too small and narrow for building envelope work.

Can I use the BlueTex in my car?

You can cut it, but it is a 2mm foam radiant barrier, not a sound deadener. The FUTUREORYY mat is sold for car sound deadening, though its cotton core is thin and needs many sheets to cover a floor.

The BlueTex is designed for permanent building installation behind or under framing, with a closed-cell foam core and a mold and mildew claim. The FUTUREORYY is a peel-and-stick sheet with no stated durability or fire rating.

Is the BlueTex worth the extra money?

Yes for building work. At about $0.66 per sq ft versus about $2.00 per sq ft for the FUTUREORYY, the BlueTex is cheaper per square foot and far wider. For a small car or pipe job, the $10.79 sheet is the practical buy.

Does either one block radiant heat?

The BlueTex states 97% radiant heat reflection. The FUTUREORYY lists aluminum foil but gives no reflection figure, so treat its performance as unstated.

How much area do I need?

Measure your wall or ceiling in square feet and divide by 300 for BlueTex rolls, or by about 5.4 for FUTUREORYY sheets. A single-car floor can take a dozen or more FUTUREORYY sheets.
