June 25, 2020- I finished installing the foil in the lower cowl.

I got a roll of foil from Van’s, but for some reason I didn’t order quite enough. OK, it was enough to cover the fiberfrax I got from Spruce. I wished I’d gotten a little bit more of that as well. But it’s in the important area. I ordered a different foil from Summit Racing to finish the rest of the cowl.

So I laid down the fiberfrax, and put the foil over it. The hard part of this was getting the fiberfrax to lay down tightly around curves while I installed the self-adhesive foil. There are a few air gaps, but that should be OK.

The foil I got from Summit was different from the Van’s material, but it should be fine. Here’s the whole cowl covered:

I edge sealed the foil with resin.
