[@jaisonbairstow3753]

Hey Al, if you turn the lagging (heat wrap) roll around the other way so it's coming out from "under" instead of "over" it's WAY easier to wind it on tight... I found that out working in a warehouse and using pallet wrap, it's the same action/motion

[@jimkillen1065]

I really enjoy your videos ..I use to work at a power plant and there was all kinds of insulation there . The wrap reminded me of fire blankets we used to protect cable trays when welding . There was crews that built blankets to go around valves piping simular to the blanket used on the turbos . I worked on a d11 cat while back and it to had insulation blankets and covers to help control heat . You have a nice shop and well equipped. Thanks for the information you provide

[@vctrsone]

Ive used that heatshielding many times to make cold air boxes for my cars. Works great.

[@aSinisterKiid]

Great job overall on the entire build. It was an awesome car to start with and I think Dave did a good job trying his best to make a race-car he could have fun in. Now that it's gotten the Skid Factory treatment, it'll definitely bring him even more fun. The double turbski's look awesome especially since you experimented with the Reverse Rotation one. The symmetry makes the whole kit look great. It sounds great and I'm sure this thing is gonna rip out on the track. Thanks for putting in the hard work to make a great project.

When working with any kind of fiber (exhaust wrap, fiberglass, carbon, fine dust from sanding metal/paint) rub some baby powder on your hands and arms or any exposed skin really. It clogs your pores so the fibers never get in to give you that itch. Washes off easy with a hose and shop rag when you're done

[@DamonDupriez]

So, the exhaust wrap you used on the dump pipes has a 'frayed' edge and a 'çlean' edge, so when you wrap it you can keep it looking a lot neater if you expose the clean edge...
