Hey volks, I checked the archives and can't seem to determine if it's practical to insulate btwn the interior panels and the exterior wall of Vanagons. Was thinking about Scoreboard and such polystyrene and the isocyante/polyol (high end/foil backed) sheets. Has anyone used such in their van walls, with success? Am also thinking of the underbelly too since lots of loss occurs there. Also, wondering if sound dampening is really necessary if I use foam thermal insulation in the walls. I'm thinking yes. Also, is 3/16" the preferred thickness for sound dampening mat/rubber? Please/thanks! -- Neil2 '82 Diesel Westfalia (Fwd Puke Qualified) '86 Vanagon/Westfalia Wannabe (Savannah) Nunquam Pendite Divendium |
