Well, I'm a dumbass. First trip out and I ripped a hole in the roof. Yup. Dumbass. Luckily I didn't damage what I hit so i only have to repair my own and not someone else's property.
This has led to an impromptu and hurried demo of the interior ceiling panels and removing all the insulation to get at the roof to fix it. I had not intended to insulate the roof and re-panel but now I have little choice.
The interior ceiling is removed and mostly fixed. I've got a shadetree mechanic that is willing to help out with the final touch ups and sealing the roof for me.
Now, my big problem is re-insulating and paneling the ceiling. I've got just shy of 2 inches worth of space for insulation so I'm thinking polyiso board. The problem is that the ceiling is chunked out with supports that can't really be removed so I'll have something like 20 sections that I will need to cut and fit the insulation to. What fun. I have several questions that I've been trying to figure out and am getting a bit stuck on.
My current plan is reflectics and polyiso. What is the best sandwhich of materials?
How do you get the insulation to stay put?
Since the roof is curved especially at the sides how do you get the polyiso to flex? I'm thinking just cutting slits length waysto allow for the curvature but that would seriuosly impact the R rating of that section.
Any thoughts or suggestions would be very much appreciated.
Hell, help with labor would too if you're anywhere near Raleigh, NC. I can't offer much more than a parking space, showers, laundry and eats. I'm a damn fine cook and I've got a freezer that needs empty before I hit the road.
