« on: November 16, 2010, 11:22:11 pm »
was thinking of buying a 7.5mtr x 600mm roll of foil backed bubble wrap from bandq for £17. its for lofts.

and glueing it to the roof and panels, just dont know how to insulate the floor though?

i posted earlier about condensation in the van and guys offered some remedies but wondered with that kind of insulation whether any moisture would get trapped behind it??

other than that the 17quid for that stuff would it cover roof and walls in your van? what size/type van u got mate?

might need 2 rolls, will still drain the system after work as im driving home, but dont want to have to bring poles and reels in at night, its a pain in the ass.
