Anyone done this sucessfully? Specifically on a later type GRP cover that is irreplaceable because its got the Oettinger wbx6 identity sticker on it! I am aware that the original contoured foam is reinforced with chicken wire - I stripped one off years ago - but its now going to dust.
I understand that class 0 foam sheet is the stuff to use, fire retardent acoustic sheet.
Thoughts/experiences?
