That thin radiant barrier/insulation stuff
Could be mistaken, but I think there was a discussion here a while back that
this stuff is not as effective as claimed. Perhaps the argument was that radiant heat is only part of the equation. wrote in message oups.com... Here you go! http://www.heatshieldmarine.com/ MW |

For my part, I intend to use the radiant barrier stuff closest to the fiberglass, then put a layer of styrofoam insulation board with its own aluminum coating. I've only got about 3/4 of an inch that I can insulate, but I figure that this will give me the best I can get. |

Yeah, but watch the static electricity. You wouldn't believe how much can
build up. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "KLC Lewis" wrote in message et... "Garland Gray II" wrote in message news:VolOg.73762$W01.69264@dukeread08...

I guess I could hook it up to a capacitor and make some use or other of it... |

After the first few zaps, I finally learned my lesson, lesson, lesson. :-) -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |

But I sure hate to see spare amps go to waste... :-) |
