Scott--
I received your sample of the aluminum faced insulation. It sure looks
like it would make a clean and durable liner for the engine and
generator compartments. I did test it with a propane torch. With the
inner tip right on the aluminum (say 1500 dergees??) it took about 5
seconds to burn through, then the whole works burned quite readily. But
when holding the torch back (say 400 degrees???) it took about 2 minutes
before I could feel significant heat transfer to the other side and
there was no combustion of the product. It certainly would be a vast
improvement over the wood in the engine compartment or the
fiberglass/foam in the generator compartment.
What are the details on the product, ie, price, sizes, availability,
etc????
