Radar has a number of types, and a huge range of frequencies:

P-Band – 30 - 100 cm (1 - 0.3 GHz)
L-Band – 15 - 30 cm (2 - 1 GHz)
S-Band – 8 - 15 cm (4 - 2 GHz)
C-Band – 4 - 8 cm (8 - 4 GHz)
X-Band – 2.5 - 4 cm (12 - 8 GHz)
K-Band – Ku: 1.7 - 2.5 cm (18 - 12 GHz); Ka: 0.75 - 1.2 cm (40 - 27 GHz).

Also Ka 33.4 - 36.0 GHz and IR -- Infrared 332 THz 904 nm Laser Radar

So it's going to depend on the part of the spectrum it's in, infrared, microwave, etc., on what you are going to need to shield it with. Whatever is the most multipurpose you can find is probably the best idea.
