Answer:

I agree with minuteblue, you don't want anything that will reflect 100% of the image. If that were the case, you would just look into the projector! Instead you want a white or grey matte coating depending on what you are viewing. If the image is more dark than anything, then you want a grey surface since it reflects back darker colors closer to what there true color is. Lighter projections, you want a white screen. Some theaters paint their walls a light matte grey so you may want to test this on a test area to see if the image is any better. Good luck with your project.
Personally I would have at least three in my house which is small. The more rooms you have the more FE you need. Here are a few tips on buying FE's. You need to make sure that you get a Class B for the oil. Class c is for electrical fires and Class A is for plastics paper and such. Class B extinguishes flammable liquids, such as gasoline, oil and grease. Check each extinguisher's number rating. The higher the number, the larger a fire the extinguisher can put out. (A 4-A unit will put out twice as much Class A fire as a 2-A one.) A high number usually means a big, heavy unit. Disposable units ($10 to $20) are typically made of plastic and lose pressure after about 12 years. Good luck and it is great you are thinking ahead this might just save your life.
