I'm not really sure of your situation, but you might consult these
folk:

I know there's an insulating material which is a fiber one one side and
a metalic sheathing on the other, which is used in many automotive
aplications for soundproffing, insulation, and the metal , I believe is
used as a flame retardent.

I wouldn't think it would be that difficult to come up with something
esasy and inexpensive you can use, though.

Correct. I've seen some of the stuff which I think would be ideal and
it's the material used on some GM cars under the hood to reduce noise.
Its fiber on the bood side, and a metallic flame retardant material on
the engine side. One could probably get all they could stand at a
local bone yard for almost nothing.

It's been my observation that it gets brittle with age.

"Hood" side.

sorry

Could be, that is, unless you get it from a fresh wreck. But would
still beat fiber getting caught on anything it can. That is, if thats
the way one is going to go.
