Insulation

I just built a house and they sprayed it with closed cell FOAM insulation. So i also put it in my 51. It worked out great !! It cost me less then dynomat would have and my truck will be like a icechest. All you snow birds will need it in the winter. LOL

How much does this foam expand? and how do you trim it out to fit headliners and such over it? Did you do the foam or the pros?
thanks, Mike

INSULATION

Go to sprayfoamdirect.com then go to Products [ Spray foam kits ] Foam it 12 patch and repair kit. It took 4 of these to do the back wall and roof. About 1 inch to 1 1/2 thick. then go to videos on the site and you will see it done. I took a sander and flatten it out. ITS A MESS WHEN YOU SAND IT. But i think it will be worth it down the road. Great sound deading and super great R rating. My house is tight as a drum. I live in Florida and my elect. bill was so low i did a dance. LOL THATS HARD FOR ME TO DO HAVING ONLY ONE LEG. LOL LOL
