    It’s a good thing you did your research on insulation. The biggest issue is people don’t realise that it can cause moisture build up in the interior due the temperature of the metal inside and outside, especially in the pockets where it can cause rust because of puddling.

      Yeah it's a hot topic on the Facebook groups 😅 and with all the research we did the B&Q recycled bottle plastic is the best option! Defo glad we did it 🙌

      @@thebastenjourney I’ve been looking to do a similar build. Using the Caddy Maxi Panel Van but having every built in a module way. So it can all be taken out or rearranged.

      @@iMann_iFail sounds exciting man, seen a few people with the removable setups, if you need it as a van space then 100% worth it! We are a VW Caddy Maxi so defo recommend ex-British gas ones as ours is beautiful!!

      luckily ours didn't have any, assume yours may be stuck down?

      Ah amazing! So excited for you!! We ordered 32sqft for the walls wheel arches, can’t remember how much of the sound deadening + insulation roll we used for the the floor but can’t ever be too safe! 👍🏼

    How come you didn't vapour board the side doors / back doors before carpeting / cladding eg over the sections with insulation in?

    • @thebastenjourney
      @thebastenjourney  6 місяців тому

      Hiya, thanks for the comment! We did vapour wrap the back of the wooden covers that go over the insulation, this means if we ever need to get to the wiring behind it, we just have to drill off the door pieces!
