Watercat, you might try that sometime, too. A lot less work than painting and if it tears you can always just put another piece over that.
A cheapo mylar emergency blanket could do the trick, too, and would probably be really easy to attach to the bucket with a spray adhesive. That should be more durable and longer lasting than the aluminum foil and still inexpensive.
