I want to shield electronics in a plastic box from RF. My first thought was to get some copper foil tape with conductive adhesive and use that to line the inside of the box. Then I priced the copper foil tape with conductive adhesive, not cheap. I was wondering how much, if any, worse it would be to simply use aluminum foil tape with out conductive adhesive, which is much cheaper. Of course I would overlap each piece of tape but there would be no electrical connection.
The RF I am concerned about is all less than 1Ghz, some as high as 930Mhz.
