I like the foil bubble wrap for insulation, then a wrap of pvc tape to make it wipe down and if you use black tape, it looks like the sort of still batman would have :D
If you peel the rubber band down you can tuck it under an make it look quite smart.

Silvery camping mats are superb! Good choice.
I use them 3-4 of them over a couple leccy blankets for winemaking.
