How to Install Garage Door Insulation
- Cut Heat Wave Pro to size using scissors, a utility knife (have extra blades), or score with with a utility knife and then use an electric fabric cutter. Use a 48” T-square to get straight cuts.
- The goal is to cover 100% of each garage door panel without impacting the door’s ability to open and close. Heat Wave Pro should be “tucked in” at the edge of each garage door panel.
- You should be able to do (3) garage door panels per (1) sheet of Heat Wave Pro.
- Clean the garage door to create a good substrate for adhesion. Brush off interior surface to remove dirt, dust, debris, and cobwebs. Scrub surface with gentle soap solution. Use a clean, wet cloth to wipe away suds, and then use a clean dry cloth to dry the surface.
- Apply Heat Wave Pro using our P329 Permanent Spray Adhesive. Apply to both the garage door and the Heat Wave Pro at 80-100% coverage. Give it 1-2 minutes to tack up. Then hold firmly to garage door to bond.
- Use foil tape to tape seams and perimeter. You should not have seams between Heat Wave Pro due to size of garage door panels, so just do the perimeter.
