You could try using a heatgun or a iron to warm up the mansory glue

Fibreglass removal...Saw once on a Roadrunner cartoon Wile E. Coyote remove it with Acme TNT....but it didnt end well! Ha Ha. I couldnt make my mind up regarding insulation. Yes it keeps the heat in (only under the windows), and the heat out in the summer...again only under the windows. But it also prevents the sun warming the bus up in winter and cooling down on a hot day through these body panels...so I didnt bother and things have been fine. I find the biggest problem is condensation on the inside of the windows on cold nights due to it being warmer inside the bus. Apparently the best way to avoid this is a slow burning wood stove as it dries out the air inside but any kind of gas heating, gas cooking generates moisture from combustion. So I bought a squeegee. Progressing well....keep it up Graham

@@grahamhickmott1957 ohhh good to know! The wall cavities are quite deep so I think I probably need to fill them with something. Good shout on the squeegee, will add it to my list of items to pack in the bus when the time comes. We are moving slowly but steadily forward!

Hi please remember for every hole you drill in the roof it will nealy always become a leak at sometime in it's life.

[@islandaimee16]

@@bigKDL good shout! I will try to minimize the holes and use A LOT. Of sealant!

Is it ok to leave Betty with no insulation as it is winter?

[@islandaimee16]

@@lorrainesims2101 I don’t think it would be very good long term, although at the moment there is nothing inside that needs to be kept warm, but I’m also hoping not to leave her too long without any 😊 once I get the ceiling down then I can look at re insulating it all

[@lorrainesims2101]

Sounds like a good plan.
