I’ve installed the Insofast system on two 20’ containers. Both on the inside, though. If I do it again, I’ll use the outside and clad the outside with some modern treatment. Some of the beauty* of containers is the way they look. Also, Insofast isn’t UV rated, and should to be covered / protected from the sun and from physical damage soon after it is installed on the outside. The ribs are 22” O.C. and sheet products like paneling, plywood and Sheetrock generate 4” of waste so I recommend horizontal material like shiplap or tongue & groove boards. I wish the ribs were wider and thicker giving more tolerance for attachment. I really enjoy your videos, keep it going!
