Lizard Skinned...........


Recommended Posts

Posted

After many delays and problems I finally managed to spray the Lizard Skin insulation in my wagon. It went surprisingly well and I am happy with the result so far. I spray all of the interior surfaces that will be covered by upholstery or carpet. I sprayed the lower firewall and inner fender surfaces and the backsides of the fenders. I had two of the 2 gallon pails and could have gotten by with one really. The biggest surprise was that the stuff is black. I would have sworn it was white! One suggestion is to wear old clothes, anything it lands on it sticks too, so lots of masking tape also. I would wear long sleeves and gloves if I did it again. I will follow this up with the foil/foam sandwich material, but next up is the undercoating under the floor. Progress!

another milestone met...looks like lots of work to ensure the stuff goes just where you want it..I bet the overspray could be a bear to deal with...have you given any consideration to the insualtion you will use in the overhead?

Well, everybody over on the Hamb really likes this foil/foam stuff sold by Lobucrods, it's call EZ Cool. I'm considering that and anything else that might do the job. Any advice?

That stuff is similar to Dynamat, they both have an R value around 4-5. Which isn't much but compared to bare metal they make a huge difference. The biggest thing you will notice is how "solid" it makes the car feel/sound. It eliminates the metal vibration sounds in the panels and eliminates road noise. I am planning on putting a bunch of this stuff in the dodge when I get to that stage.
