Hi! Is it sure that the reflection is comming from the ambient ligth ? If this, perhaps it is possible to shield this whit some bag or box, but I can imagine the reflex is from the curved surface, and in that case diffecult to reduce. Perhaps it is possible to find a glazed tile, (wrong name pehaps, I mean a keramic plate used in kitchen or bathroom) whit similar color and surface. //Magnus Wallden 2010/6/8 Ing.
