Mirrors for 405nm?

Is it true that normal mirrors will let through a lot of the blu-ray light rather than reflecting it like you would expect them to with other colors? I'm looking for some mirrors to make a spiro with, so they don't have to be super high quality, but If the beam is going to go through the crappy aixiz lens first, and then bounce off 3 mirrors, I do want to have some power left in the end :P

I'm thinking this would be almost perfect:

but the price is way too high.

These are better:

but will they reflect 405nm?
 





8-)I already got mine. 8-) Thesk8midget gave me a fantastic deal! Yes, they reflect pretty much all of the 405nm light. ;) Can't wait till I get some red to mix with the "argon" color.

i have not had a problem with any of my mirrors including my thin scanner mirrors reflecting 405nm

im not sure where this all was heard but i have yet to have a problem with it all.

and even if your losing some off cheap mirrors im betting it will be less than a couple of percent
 
he was probably hearing it from the people with laser scanners - the mirrors that come with my ScanPro galvo set do not reflect 405nm well
