1) Making a structure that will survive lightning strikes. Assuming
you also have conductive paint, are ready to electrically bond each
piece to it's neighbor, and don't care if the resin adheres very well
to the aluminum.

2) Make a composite Faraday cage. Same issues.

Is it treated as the non aluminized stuff in terms of using it?
