A dull surface is a better absorber of infrared radiation heat compared to a shiny surface. The rough texture of a dull surface allows for more absorption of infrared radiation, while a shiny surface reflects much of the radiation.
Shiny surfaces do not absorb light because they have a smooth surface that reflects most of the light that hits them. This reflection prevents the light from being absorbed into the material, giving it a shiny appearance.
Having a light shiny surface on the top of the reflecting hood helps to reflect more light downwards onto the work surface. The shiny surface reflects light more efficiently compared to a dark matte surface which absorbs light, resulting in better illumination of the working area.
Light oscillates in a direction perpendicular to the surface of the shiny transparent surface when it is reflected. This is known as the normal direction.
When infrared radiation reaches a shiny surface, such as a mirror or polished metal, it is mostly reflected back rather than absorbed. Shiny surfaces have high reflectivity, which means they can bounce back a significant amount of infrared radiation. This property of shiny surfaces is why they are often used in applications like solar reflectors to maximize heat reflection.
Dark matt surfaces absorb radiated heat much more easily than light-coloured shiny surfaces.
A smooth, shiny surface such as a mirror is the best reflector of radiation as it can bounce light rays off it without absorbing or scattering them. Rough or dark surfaces tend to absorb more radiation than they reflect.

A shiny surface reflects 'more' light than a matt surface.
It reflects the light, that is how the surface seems shiny.When light hits a shiny surface it is reflected and is sometimes bent.
Shiny surfaces do not absorb light because they have a smooth surface that reflects most of the light that hits them. This reflection prevents the light from being absorbed into the material, giving it a shiny appearance.
Matt surfaces are better absorbers of thermal radiation than shiny surfaces, as the light "bounces" around on the Matt surface meaning more energy can be absorbed, compared to a shiny surface. A look at a cross section of a Matt surface may be helpful.
Matte (dull) and black surfaces emit infrared radiation at a faster rate than shiny and white surfaces.
