Contact cement has been doing the job for me for several years, although I
did use the 1/4" thick foil-faced bubble wrap from the home improvement
store.  I also think I put in a pop rivet or two with a washer under the
head to make sure the insulation on the underside doesn't come loose in the
heat and end up in the universal joint.

Patton,

The material is foiled faced on both sides.
I used double-backed tape to hold it in place.

  Ron,

  Is this sticky sided stuff or did you have to glue this down?

    Dan,

    I used a foiled faced bubble product specifically manufactured for the
    automotive industry called BA820 and manufactured by Reflectic Inc.
    (800-879-3645 Jerry Saunders.)  This product utilizes thicker aluminum
    facers and a thicker core material than what can be found at home
    improvement centers.  As always, no financial or other connections with
the
    manufacturer.
