Can you make a test exposure with the hood and one without?

If it increases the flare, you could treat the inside with a rubber 
rejuvenator.  The stuff we used on rollers long ago smelled terrible but it 
produced a totally matte surface.  I would even try Armorall 'cause I think it 
gives you a glossy surface.
