"Would it be necessary to paint the bottom of the pan a silver colour or do you rely on the reflecting properties of the liquid."

Andrew, you will get very lost bringing a star down onto its reflection in the bottom of the pan rather then the surface of the liquid which floats in it. Kieran Kelly Sydney Australia
