Hello,
Jim Armstrong here. As well as havening my Tiger, I have been slowly
restoring an Aston Martin DB 2 and belong to a kind of list serve for these
cars. I ran into this product below, and I cut and pasted a guy's submission on
a spray insulation product that sounds pretty trick.
-- As an alternate to traditional insulation products, I went a different
way when restoring my Aston Martin
DB 2-4. Let me first explain my reasoning. My firm is in the business of
Energy Consulting. We are a participating contractor with FP&L (Florida
Power and Light Co) In auditing buildings, insulation, roof, walls etc.,the R
Values are important to the building envelope. There is a product that was
invented for NASA that incapacitates and protects, that is sprayed to any
clean surface.
After having my car soda blasted we applied 40 mills of this emulsion to
the underside of bonnet, complete interior and all areas needing traditional
insulation. The product is Ceramic Cover CC 100, Distributed by Enviortrol
Inc. but only applied by approved contractors, approx $8.00 per square
foot installed. The R Value is far superior to traditional methods and
insulates against heat, sound and water intrusion. NASCAR has experimented
with it
on fire walls, headers, and cockpit flooring. It has successfully been
used on the space shuttle heat shields. The product is sprayed, similar to
paint, and dries to a hard coat white ceramic that is sandable, and can be
painted. In demonstrations, a sample, half treated with CC 100, half
untreated, heated to red hot, can be picked up without fear. In the
construction
industry, it is sprayed to roof decks, walls etc. It also has industrial
applications for water tank towers and industrial piping. Ford Motor Co, R&D
Dept's are conduction experiments for sound deadening and heat applications.
