Tinfoil for one.

Cut to approximate shape & tape it down around the edges.

I just did one today with the type of paper that I use when I mask a car to paint. Worked well. If you think about it, around Thanksgiving, they roast turkey's in paper sacks to hold in the flavor. It works, as with powder coating.
