Question will screen melt?

would a 150w basking bulb melt fiberglass screen if the dome light it is in is left resting on top of the screen? i have 100w in now, and there seems to be no problems. i just want to see if anything will happen though before i do it and ruin my cage. thanks

I'd say it's unlikely at best. Do a google search for Fibreglass melting point....
