I do use the rolled fiberglass under the roof decking, and on the walls, covered with a sheet of paneling.
The thing about these radiant barrier products, is that the stores which carry it can't answer any questions. The aluminum radiant barrier was too expensive to gamble blindly, so I went with traditional insulation.
For my double-wide doors, I used 3" medium-density foam board to save weight, but it has it has it's own shortcomings, mainly that the foam attracts certain flying wasps that want to to live in it. NO ONE told me this before I spent $4/sq. ft, and now I must schedule a bug bomb every 3-4 months.
I will test out the south-shading suggestion. IT may be more practical than covering the roof with camo. Thanks for the tip!

That's exactly what I meant, leave a vented gap between the roof and the PolyIso foam. Sorry if I wasn't clear.
