under bonnet insulation fitting

Recommended Posts

I have bought a set of under- bonnet foam insulation from Christian (SPRINTER). Excellent product by the way.Now I need to fit it. So some advice please. Firstly any tips on removing the old foam would be helpful. I was thinking of covering the engine bay with a sheet and just carefully scraping the foam off, but I imagine that there will be some old adhesive to deal with. Should I use a solvent? And then to the sticking of the new foam - does the paper backing peel off to expose a self adhesive layer or do I use a contact adhesive?

Best wishes

RB

Hi Roger..

 

I'll probably lock this thread up as removal of old foam has been discussed a lot on here. Here's an example thread:

As for sticking it, from talking to someone this weekend who bought a set of the foam, I believe it does come with a strong adhesive layer under the bit you peel off.
