Jim,

VB-TSM is what I put on the inside of the galvanized metal Onan box under Helen's bed in the Avion and I cut down the noise and
heat. IIRC I got it from J.C. Whitney:

http://www.jcwhitney.com/mylar-faced-foam-sound/heat-insulation-with-vinyl-lining/p2002966.jcwx?skuId=169241&filterid=u0j1

TG-1(1G) - no experience so I'll defer commenting.

I intend to remove the Onan and line the "inside" of the galvanized metal container but I ain't figger'd out what to use yet. I do
no I will mount a sheet metal barrier between the Onan exhaust manifold and the insulation.

Regards,
Rob M.
