Do you think they would be OK to sit on a bedfroom windowsill - I mean, would the heat damage the paintwork or anything?Mark Willishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04558305122821209520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7033294490607599727.post-57166870295391883982011-03-07T02:42:40.231-08:002011-03-07T02:42:40.231-08:00Hi Mark, the foil trays I reclaim from office cate...Hi Mark, the foil trays I reclaim from office catered lunches else they end up in the recycle bin or worse, the rubbish. I use them for cookingon the grill, and all sorts of things. <br /><br />The heating mats are $29 for a flat size, a three flat was 70 as a garden center and i found these so the prcice was right. They can get wet, but don't immerse them. The raise the temp by 10-20F over ambient room temp.David P.

Did you get them online or at a garden centre?
