gen radiator update, question on insulation

[Scott]

Rose Mary, Great news!! Good to see you "update" the situation. The
insulation question is right on the money..do the upgrade NOW when
you have the genny out.It will be sooo much easier without the genny
compartment full of stuff...I purchased the insulation material from
forum member Stephen Birtles..man that stuff is good. Very easy to
work with. (ie:cutting, placing before removing the "very sticky"
backing) That material is very good. One word of caution...Make sure
the surface on the coach is REALLY clean..especially the TOP of the
genny compartment. Mine was not (son did the grinding there) and it
fell..I had to redo that portion..but there was a NOTICEABLE noise
difference...when the genny ran!!
Best of luck
