While working on brand x doing some wiring, I took the side wall off. There is no insulation on that side, as the factory "fiberglass type" insulation was removed on that side. I have a roll of similar material, and a hangar neighbor just gave me some cheap feeling 1/4" light foam/foil stuff that he and another guy used. I am not wanting to do an all over insulation job, but merely put something back on that side. Given the choice of the the 2 materials, what is the general as to which may "make a difference"? In my ignorance, I would think the "fiberglass" would be .....
Thanks

Light a piece on fire and see how fast it burns. We bought a Geronimo that was full of insulation the owner put in to make it quiet. Stuff burnt up so fast. I tried finding the video on my computer but no luck.
