Hi Roy,

        Do you have a link to the type of product you are describing?  I don’t know what it is.  It sounds like a good option.

I have done the fat mat thing and it helps but now I am lookingfor the next layer for insolation and a bit more sound proofing.

Thanks,

Eric

A better solution would be to use a thin layer (1/2” - 1”) of flexible high-density polyurethane insulation or an aerogel matt insulation.  Both are hydrophobic and the aerogels have R-values ranging from R10 - R25 per inch … the only thing better is vacuum panel insulation (~R50/in), but they are too fragile for most retrofit applications.

I plan to use aerogel when I redo both my ’66 Westy and the Hyena.
