CSI heat shield insulation. How install this? Foil side down or fabric side down? Spray adhesive?

Foil side faces heat. You can apply adhesive on the fiberglass side, such as DEI or 3M spray on adhesive for heat resistance application.

I used this as a carpet on a truck that didn't come with any fabric or heat shield. I put the foil side toward the heat source and the fabric side toward me. As far as spray adhesive, if you want a really custom form fitting install, this may be difficult because the fabric didn't mold well for me around detailed shapes and curves. If your install is mostly straight and 90 degree corners then I would imagine you could use adhesive to keep it against the metal of the vehicle. I personally did not, I'm using it more like a mat that I can remove if dirt or debris collects under the heat resistant foil side.

I put the heat shield down flat on the ground. Measured the area I needed and then cut the heat shield to the measurements I needed. The NON foil side is the side that goes up against the metal with the adhesive. Spray the adhesive to the area and then put the heat shield on the adhesive. Make sure you place the heat shield in the correct area you want done. It turned out very nice when completed

You should install the heat shield insulation with the fabric side adhered to the surface and the foil side exposed.

Foil goes towards the heat side. I Don't know what your application is for attachment advice, Mine was under a truck hood using new attachment pins also bought through Amazon.

This insulation should be installed with spray adhesive that is heat resistant. I purchased it at AutoZone. The fabric side is the side that is to be glued to the surface. The aluminum side is the side that faces any and all heat sources. Remember the spray adhesive that you utilize has to be heat resistant.

And Kenny woods... I took a cooling fan from a laptop... Disassembled the case for it and fit it to the bottom... It really helps with the heat dissipation

Haven't installed this yet; still using one with side opening only. I just pull it to one side and drape it over a corner chair. Works fine.

Pretty much the same the silicone also has elements in it to contain the heat. I used it to cover the small section of muffler that the wrap was too short for

As per the description, the tape should be placed at the seams (or along the edge where two materials meet). As for how much to use, in your case I would place it ALL along the edges so no wind gets under a gap and prys up on the panel. You'd likely want a seamless bond all along the edge.

I just set them down over the light canisters and then placed insulation over them. This was a retrofit as the canisters were already installed and I put these in later when remodeling.

The instructions say to use fiberglass which I did but the distal end of my tape is embedded in spray foam with no ill effects so far. The foam could be a fire hazard so be careful where you install it.

Put the adhesive side up on the applicator first. Put the cd on top with the non playing side next. Smooth out.

It's best to install item on the inside of your walls (to be weather wise). You have double sided adhesive strips that you press along the sides and top of your garage wall (which I did not use because 100 degree temps were a problem for me). I used "L" shaped aluminum rails for a permanent structure. This item is also easily rolled up and tied at the top with permanent flecro straps sewned into the screens that enable your cars easy access.

If the insulation is falling in on you while you are installing the fan, block it with whatever you have handy. Cardboard pieces, duct tape, whatever. Leave it once you are done. Generally there is no reason to remove it.

It worked for me. The heat sink is facing the outside with the wires on the right hand side as you slide it in. Cheers,

no, this is not meant to be installed directly on the heat source due to the adhesive backing. This product reflects radiant heat away. you will probably need exhaust wrap some similar to HeatShield 371025.

This blanket did not have any adhesive. I used the Roll over image to zoom in This blanket did not have any adhesive. I used DEI 010490 Hi Temp Spray Adhesive which worked well for my application which was to replace the insulating blanket inside a "gaspack" HVAC outdoor unit. Carl Whitaker

Use a regular spray adhesive, I use permatex, comes in a can. And if you really want to be secure, use a weatherstrip adhesive on the outside corners

I used 3M brand High Temp spray adhesive on my RV engine compartment with the foil side facing down. This will assure a good bond under extreme heat and vibrations.

It has the gray carpet liner on one side, foil is on the other side (so only one side is foil). There is no sticky backing on either side. I used mine as an additional layer of insulation/sound deadening material in the rear of an older Corvette, between a layer of Hush Mat and the carpet.

John, I used them to join 2 strips for a long run i don't think they will take the heat, could use srink tubing and cover it with marine grade epoxy, that might work(?)
