West Coast Customs called us out to Burbank, CA to help with a rear engine heat issue in this one-of-a-kind, 23 window, steampunk VW bus. The owners of the bus wanted to travel across the country in their retirement and be able to comfortably sleep inside, even with the engine running. Second Skin materials allowed them to achieve that goal, plus some!
This van was soundproofed and insulated to the nines, so the build materials filled an entire pallet. When you have a 1000 horsepower engine, you have to bring in the heavy artillery to deal with the consequences! The following materials were used in this build: 200 sq ft of Damplifier Pro (everywhere), 144 sq ft of Luxury Liner Pro (floor/doors/walls), 24 sq ft of Mega Zorbe (ceiling), 16 sq ft of Mega Block (rear engine firewall), 4 cans of Second Skin spray adhesive, and a single, wooden hand roller.
All of the build materials can be purchased at a discount in the West Coast Customs Build Kit.
