Abstract
Certain example embodiments relate to an improved secondary reflector panel with a heat-treatable coating. Certain example embodiments related to method of making a secondary reflector panel where a reflective coating is disposed onto a glass substrate. A portion of the reflective coating is removed and a frit material is disposed over the reflective coating. An elevated temperature is applied to the glass substrate, the coating, and the frit material where the frit is cured and the glass substrate is formed as desired.
