Headlining Install - Sound-proofing and Insulation?

[Walt]

Spoke to Noisekiller peeps at the VoWo show and the eggshell is to thick for standard headlining.... I asked the same question...Ben

Same here - the guy said the eggshell stuff would be too thick to put underneath the headliner.

He recommended the "thinner" stuff instead.

Shame because the egg foam looks good.

So if it is not possible how did you think I did it?
Believe me it is possible, otherwise I would not have done it.

If you look at my fotos in this thread you can see the arches that strengthen the roof and you can see that the foam is no thicker than these arches. Of course Noisekiller doesn't recommend using Eggshelfoam, because they would go out of business.

Noisekiller use egg foam for the roof.

Nice job, i also used Thermo-wrap in my tin top Westy as a start then added additional insulation before putting up the wooden headliner....nice and toasty.

i used some dynamat strips to dampen the noise (panel 'boom'), and sheeps wool insulation behind the ply. sheeps wool behind all panels except the doors too (need some attention first). It's pretty low in mositure absorbtion and quick to dry, apparently...
