Thermal & Acoustic Insulation How to insulate a campervan or car roof, dashboard and the centre console
To insulate the roof of a car or campervan we advise to start with applying a light anti-drumming sheet, Vibraflex Normal, and than a thermal wool insulation to insulate the roof. These together insulate airflow and vibrations from the roof. When it comes to the anti-drumming of a roof, we advise to cover about 60 to 70% of the total surface, only the flat parts of the roof.
How to insulate the roof
Begin with thoroughly cleaning the surfaces which you want to insulate, as this allows the insulation material to attach well. Never touch the adhesive side of any product, even greasy fingers can adversely affect the adhesive layer. Apply the bitumen damping sheets like a sticker. Avoid air bubbles and use the pressure roller to apply the sheets to the roof. We recommend to use Vibraflex Normal. Make sure the sheets are warm enough this makes the sheets flexible and activates the adhesive layer.
To insulate the roof against heat you can apply a layer of Akotherm Basic polyester wool with some contact adhesive. This will insulate noise more and reduces heat. Akotherm can be mounted between the Vibraflex and the headliner of the car.
How to insulate the centre console (tunnel)
The centre console, or tunnel, can transmit heat and noise from the transmission and exhaust pip into the car. In order to insulate the centre console you need to take this part(s) out of the car. The console can be insulated with Aluglass reduce the radiation of heat from the transmission or exhaust, depending on the type of vehicle. Consoles that causes noise in the cabin can also be insulated with bitumen damping sheets like Vibraflex. As always, clean the parts that you want to insulate before applying any self-adhesive products.
