November 3, 2008 - Firewall Insulation

The instructions for the firewall insulation calls for glueing aluminum foil to the aft side.  The guy I bought my hangar from had left a big roll of industrial strength Alumiseal.  I figured it is probably better than aluminum foil so I used it for my firewall insulation.
  
I cut a piece of alumiseal to match the foam. 
  
Then I glued it on using 3M Super 77 per the GBI directions.  Making the firewall shielding is going to be time-consuming, because there are so many things going through the firewall.  I'll have to cut corresponding holes in the insulation for them.
