When installing www.BlueTexInsulation.com if you want a radiant barrier and vapor barrier, then YES you need an air space between foil and the metal. If you ONLY want a vapor barrier (common in colder areas) you can install the metal direct to the foil without an airspace.
Living in Columbus Ohio. How would I want to install this in the ..roof..walls..ect...Hot summers humidity and cold winters...Looking not to have condensation also.
For that type of application, I would actually recommend using www.AtticFoil.com with this install method: atticfoil.com/index.php/applications/inside-exterior-walls-hotmixed-climates/
You could. But, www.AtticFoil.com housewrap is probably a better choice. We have a lot of home builders use this instead of Tyvek. atticfoil.com/index.php/applications/house-wrap-behind-siding/
Yes, you can use the www.BlueTexInsulation.com to wrap ductwork. It works great. I would actually use the Supreme 6mm product with the foil side facing OUT (to get a radiant barrier) and use FOIL tape to seal the seams. bluetexinsulation.com/products/bluetex-6mm-supreme-50-wide

Can you wrap ductwork with this?
I noticed their putting the Blue Tex pro 2mm sandwiched between the Frame structure and the outer panels? Don't you want an air gap between them?

3:14 "UV Resistant Coating"? really? what is it for? where does UV radiation come from, since it's not exposed to the sun?
Even interior lights emit UV. Over time it adds up and will cause deterioration.
