Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Surface Preparation: Ensure the shed walls and roof are clean, dry, and free of dust, grease, or loose debris. This is critical for the adhesive to stick properly.
  2. Cutting: Measure and cut the insulation to fit the shed panels using kitchen scissors. Overlap seams slightly to eliminate gaps.
  3. Application: Peel off the backing from the self-adhesive strips and apply the insulation to the interior of the shed walls and roof, pressing firmly to ensure good contact.
  4. Compatibility: Suitable for most shed materials, including wood and metal. However, ensure the surface is compatible with adhesive products.
  5. Care: The insulation requires minimal care. Avoid puncturing or damaging the foil layers. If the insulation gets dirty, clean it gently with a damp cloth.
