It has an aluminium face on a 3mm needle punched fibreglass and polyester core, and Car Builders oven test it for 30 hours at 246°C with no failure. Peel the liner, stick it to the panel you want to protect with the aluminium facing the heat, and it reflects radiant heat off floor pans, tunnels, fuel tanks and firewalls.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat problems does the Car Builders Peel and Stick Heat Shield fix?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHot floors and tunnels.\u003c\/strong\u003e Most cabin heat is radiant heat from the exhaust and engine.

Any heat that gets through then has to pass the fibreglass and polyester core before it reaches the panel. Car Builders say an Embossed Heat Shield spaced off the panel with an air gap is the most effective option, and this one is the next best choice when there is no room for that gap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat is in the box\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e1 Peel and Stick Heat Shield sheet in the size and type you select\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow much do I need?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMeasure the panel you want to cover and allow for the shape of the surface.

Car Builders list fuel tanks and fuel systems, tunnel shields, floor pans, exhaust areas, body shields, transmissions, steering components, fluid lines, rubber mounts and axle bushings.
