I posted this earlier in the general discussion but thought perhaps the factory folks could provide a recommendation.

The insulation on the starboard side of my engine compartment has worked its way loose. This is a foil faced foam type and was apparently glued to the wall. While I noticed that the lid and port side pieces of insulation were secured with adhesive AND screws, the port side was only glued.

What type of adhesive should I utilize to resecure this insulation, as it is bare foam on the backside? I know some products will deteriorate the foam. Is it possible to place a few washers and screws (nuts and bolts?) into the side of the lazerette compartment without any problems to help hold it in place?

Any advice is appreciated!

Hello,

I would use some screws and fender washers to secure it back in place. Should be a fiberglass wall separating the compartments that you can screw into.

Thank you,
 
Roger that Andrew! Thanks for the input!
