The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area Interiors Ceiling insulation suggestions?

Howdy;
I've read the 6 page thread on Dynamat and the other sound deadeners, and watched a number of you-tube videos on the topic but I'm wondering if anyone has had any personal experience with using any of them on the ceiling of their cab, or whether they've used something else successfully. That some of the deadeners come off easily when heated concerns me that a day in the hot sun might cause them to sag. Suggestions?

Thanks - Bruce

I 3M contacted cemented two layers of foil cover bubble wrap. Held up fine through the summer heat.

One layer of single-foil-side bubble wrap (foil side up): attached with 3M Super 77 Multipurpose Spray Adhesive over 10 years ago. It is holding up fine.

I used a rollon contact cement but I have used the 3m spray adhesive and it worked too.

I only wanted to do this once (installing the headliner) and so spent the $$ on Fatmat.
It was easy to install and appears to have adhered well. Time will tell of course.

I used the Reflectex (Home Depot, 50 beans maybe) foil bubble both sides with the 3M 77 Adhesive also. I used on the roof,doors and under firewall. Seems to still be adhered

sounds like the foil lined bubble-wrap may be the way to go for those of us on a budget. Thanks for the advice!

Has anyone taken note on how well the silver bubble wrap insulation reflex heat? I was planning on using this myself.

Here's a quick before and after showing the difference made by a piece of Eastwoods Thermo coustic on my cab. I costs about have that of Dynamat. I painted the cab ceiling first to give a clean surface to stick to. It's been there for about five years now. I've used it all over the inside of my cab. I hope I never have to remove any because it STICKS!
