Bind Tyvek and Mylar into a two ply application

Bind Tyvek and Mylar into a two ply application

(OP)
I need a recommendation for a adhesive that will bind tyvek and mylar into a two ply material.  UV will not be an issue because the mylar will be aluminized.  But heat will be, as the final product will be used as a desert shade structure material.  The end result needs to be flexable so the material can be rolled for transportation.  Low/no shrinkage is also obvously important.  Each piece of final material will be at most 3m x 3m.  The prototypes will be built in the next few days and will about 400 sq/ft, so imeadiate availabity of small quanities is nessasary.  Spray application is perferable, but anything will be concidered.

Thanks in advance for the help.

You could sew them together?

Not sure about temperature resistance, but there is a sprayable rubber cement called SprayTack?
