gen set/books needed
This company offers 2 pound lead composite insulation
"capeinnovation"
Tell me how much you want and i will ship it to you
as well as various foams both heat resistant and fire proof and faa
and coast guard certified
just tell me what composites you need and they can be constucted
from foam to ceramic, lead lined vinyl or fiberglass or even carbon
fibre
And when you say correctly insulated it did you also insulate the
baffles you installed and also did you install the correct isolation
dampeners either single point of dual point
Could you please let us wanting minds know how you accomplished this
Thank you
