About this deal

Until I started my van conversion I didn’t even know sound deadening was a thing, call me naive but this is my first van conversion and it’s never come up in general conversation before. I did end up with a couple of little gaps but I filled these later on with some of the leftover pieces. First layer of ceiling insulation added My van is a medium sized van, long-wheel based, approximately 2.5 m long by 1.4 m wide and 1.4 m high, to help you visualise and compare to your van.

This self adhesive high quality liner can maintain shape under pressure yet be flexible enough to trim easily in many areas of the vehicle. It is water and high temperature resistant and flame retardant to UK vehicle standards. For the ceiling of my Vauxhall Vivaro Mk3 I used approximately 2.5-metres of thermal linerinsulation, less because I was filling the panels in the ceiling and not covering the entire area. Total = 2.5 m2 Here is what I used to insulate my van walls, floor and ceiling. I’ll do a breakdown of what I used for each part of the van but here’s the overall list. For my side panels and four doors I used the same two items for my van insulation – Dodo Mat thermal linerand recycled plastic loft insulation Here I’ll explain which insulation I used for each part of my campervan, mission, to keep ‘Dennis’ lovely and warm 🙂 Campervan Sound Deadening

Dodo Super Liner

And when I added the ThermaWrapas part of phase two of the insulation, I bought two rolls of insulation (600 mm x 7.5 m) as I planned to use elsewhere for my window cover. I used about two-thirds of one roll and I also bought two rolls of tape (50 mm x 20 m), I wasn’t sure how much I’d use but it turned out it was less than one roll foil. Recommended products for this stage: 2 x Dodo Super Liner Rolls or 2 x Dodo Dead Mat Duo Rolls Optional Stage 3 - Floor Recommended products for this stage: 1-2 Dodo Thermo Liner rolls or 2-3 Dodo Thermo Liner Pro rolls. As soon as I removed all my plywood panels and the bulkhead the noise of the van during normal driving was apparent, all those speed bumps or potholes caused even more noise and rattling of the metal, that was noisy even with the music on.

Foam spray looks like it would be great, getting in every single small gap but after watching a few YouTube videos I decided it was not for me, in fact, many people do opt for a professional foam spray job because it’s really that messy. Once I’d fitted all the thermal liner I then moved onto my second layer of insulation – the recycled plastic loft insulation– I researched a few places, the cheapest option ended up being from B&Q, with an R value of 2.25 m2k/w. There’s a similar product that Dodo Insulation do but this is almost double the price and in my opinion looks the same. To prevent cold air being drawn up from under the van, a layer of closed cell foam underlay will help insulate the floor while keeping the profile low to allow ply and side steps to be refitted. The foam will also prevent the ply from "creaking" and act as a floating layer. I decided to start with my ceiling insulation for my van, because the panels were all straight and that looked like it would be an easy task to start with. I also thought it made sense to start cutting the roll into straight lines as I knew later on I’d need to cut different shapes to fit the awkward areas of the van. The instructions within the box suggest up to 50% of each panel is covered and for areas that have more noise, for example, the wheel arches they have 100% coverage. I adopted this suggestion (sort of).

Dodo Super Liner is an affordable, self-adhesive flexible foam liner that is perfect for vehicle heat and sound insulation when applied over sound deadening. The unique Dodo closed cell foam formulation has been designed to give superb thermal insulation and acoustic absorption in a 12mm (1/2") profile. I also kept all the odds and ends so I could use every bit of the thermal liner on any odd places once I’d done the large sections. Use a special formulation closed cell foam with excellent thermal and acoustic properties. Ideal to reduce noise, insulate the vehicle and to isolate barriers and trim panels. Dodo Super Liner is an affordable, self-adhesive flexible foam liner that is perfect for vehicle heat and sound insulation when applied over sound deadening. The unique Dodo closed-cell foam formulation has been designed to give superb thermal insulation and acoustic absorption in a low 6mm (1/4″) profile. For the ceiling insulation I used the Dodo Mat thermal liner,I used a tape measureto work out the size I needed for each panel and cut this with my heavy duty scissors. The van has a metal divider in the middle so the strips were roughly 1.25 metres long by 40 cm wide so an easy size to work with
