    I've been searching far and wide to find the best way to insulate my van. I've come across countless articles and videos, each seemingly contradicting the others. Currently, I'm considering using Lizard Skin in combination with spray foam, but with a twist compared to what I've seen in other...

    Hey everyone, I'm curious about those who have used Lizard Skin: has anyone only used the insulation component and skipped the sound deadening aspect of the paint? I've decided to go with Lizard Skin primarily for its full coverage spray, which I believe will help with rust prevention, and its...

    We have a 2020 Transit high roof Extended that we built out ourselves. This pic is from our June 2023 Alaska trip. I have read a lot of post about how to insulate your van and what size heater is required. I was shocked at how many BTU's most people said they had and still got cold with...

    Do you think it would be better to stick Thinsulate in the interior plastics and headliner, kind of like Hein shows for the front doors or glue it to the metal of the van which seems to be standard practice? Would there be a difference in sound or thermal having the air gap between the van skin...

  6. Camper Vans and Conversions
    I haven't really contributed much any of my own build and ideas. I have done a lot different on our build but used many concepts discussed here to some extent and wanted to make a post sharing an easy solution for mY rear doors. I didn't screw any screws into our van during the build. So didn't...

    Duck liner Wanted to see what y’all thought of this duck liner insulation. It’s sticky on one side and foiled on the other and it’s meant to go down as the first layer of insulation primarily to prevent condensation. I’m going to use it to wrap the door frames and seal the edges with a...

    Hey all, just came across this insulation product on the Heatso website because of a random IG ad. AutoPly Woven Fabric Insulation Kit for Ford Transit Thought it was interesting, so I did a search on the forum and only found this post from mid-2022 from the company, with basic info about the...

    Like New set of VanEssential rear window covers for 2015+ Ford Transit. These were impressive, complete blackout and they fold up for driving with strong magnets. Comes with fitted storage bag of same material/color. I went with a different color scheme and don't need these, only installed for 1...

    I was envisioning leaving the backs of my storage compartments open so one could slide your hand thru the joints in the insulation and actually touch the outer metal wall to check for ice and excessive moisture, but my ceiling with a continuous layer of Thinsulate looks so warm, that I'm tempted...

    Hi, After weeks of searching and several conversations with Ford parts and local dealers, I've had no success finding a replacement piece of this insulation. So hopefully I can get the damaged piece reinstalled. But my local Ford dealer needs me to describe where it originally came from so...

    Squirrels started chewing on this piece of insulation and pulled it right out of its original location. The picture shows how I found it one day when I opened the hood. I am quite sure it came from the area under the cowl and just over top of the air intake. I can feel the same product if I...

    $150 USD
  14. Ford Transit General Discussion
    I've been creating some window covers for our Transit but wanted to hear everyone views on the uses of Low-E and the more reflective insulation application vs the thicker insulation which performs more as a thermal barrier. Has anyone tried out both and what did they prefer?

    Opened the hood to a nice little nest. Anyone recognize where they stole the insulation from? Luckily they left the wires alone!

    I am looking to insulate for 4 season use in Maine and wanted to get some feedback on using DRI-CORE R+ Insulated Subfloor Panels. I have only seen this used in a bus conversion in Canada and was unable to find anything in the forums, so I thought I would check before getting started. Is...

    Hey all! Thought I would hop on to start a thread about our conversion so I can elicit advise from this rad community and then help others that come after us. We've been "planning" since January, bought our rig in March, gave up our pad in LA and drove 3,000 miles across country to build it...

    My 2015 Ford Transit came with this double layer flooring, top layer is a rubber mat with a second layer of this unknown insulation. Does anyone know the type of insulation this is? Would like to know the name, r-value, water resistance info thanks
