[QUOTE="Lee36328, post: 57551, member: 113"] Koryong, You are absolutely right on one thing, industrial foam is noise, vibr and heat-insulating, but not flame resistant..... However, that is NOT the stuff Desmond puts in your car... he has actually shown me samples of industrial foam to compare with what he uses... totally different properties.... The industrial foam is hard at the top, and flaky and crusty (like a keropok) with lots of air bubbles at the bottom.... so please be careful... cure a sample in an empty water bottle to clearly see its properties after it dries over a few days.... my humble suggestion... after all, if u're going to put it in ur car, and the procedure is IRREVERSIBLE.... gotta know how it will turn out.... Further to your DIY research, another suggestion, please do what he did... try to see whether the foam can stand up to heat, fire, and even acid... Desmond's foam is practically indestructible... he should know, after the years of research he has done.... However, would be interesting to see how your experiment turns out... do keep us posted... good luck... :ok: :huh: [/QUOTE]
