Post by: dannymack on February 10, 2014, 05:43:47 pm
Well it's been a couple of weeks since I double bubble wrapped the roof inside as it was covered in water droplets everyday
Well it's been brilliant no water droplets the van seems warmer when I get in the back in the mornings
See pic below brilliant !!!👳👳👳

Hiya Robert I bought 5 metres of double foil bubble wrap off eBay think it cost me £23 which was plenty and used foil tape a couple of rolls cost a tenner but so worth it m8. Had enough of the van wet in the back now don't have any of it and the foil will keep it abit cooler in the summer !!! 👳👳👳👍

have you checked under the bubble wrap it may be collecting in small pockets and sitting there eating away at the body work funny thing condensation gets every where you dont expect

Robert only one layer as its double foiled, as for water sitting under if it is doubt it would go rusty as it would do the same in the cab except you have the lining in the cab roof Dave. 👳👳👳👍

I think you are right to point out this issue. They do recommend a breathable membrane in camper van conversions.

Cleancare if there is its not dropping down in the van making it wet. I'm not gonna rip it to see but it feels warmer than norm in there and it's dry in the back of van. 👳👳👳
