Difference between reflector colors?


I recently bought a pop up reflector that is see through white. It also came with a cover to go over it for solid white, black, silver, and gold sides? What effect do each of these make? Thanks! TAmmy

  -see through for diffusing light that passes thru it.
-solid white for using as a reflector/bounce
-black for using as a gobo, to block light, if you don't want reflected light
-silver for reflected/bounce not as diffused as white, a little brighter, maybe harsher than you like with the white
-gold for reflecting gold looking light, warmer feeling, fake sunset/evening light look
