Van ceiling panels installed

We finally get the ceiling panels completed. We insulated the ceiling with a combination of materials, using foam board with a final layer of reflectix to help shield the van from the roof temps and keep the warmth or cool air in the van. we used a 1/4 birch bead board with three coats of low VOC water based poly crylic and it turned out real nice. In our next video we install our spare tire grey water tank from northwest conversions.

    Excellent job, Dan!! You can use a chrome ring, when using the screws, kind of cleans it up. You guys are doing an amazing job!!

    I’ve been driving myself crazy trying to come up with a good solution for our ceiling. You just gave it to me! I think I’m gonna rip the sheets down to 2’ though and run them crosswise. My wife tries her hardest to help me but she has a bad shoulder so this is something I’ll have to do myself. Did you get that paneling at one of the big box stores?

    Awesome glad our idea sparked one for you, yes we bought the sheets at lowes, i went big box store for three reasons the price, availability for when i made mistakes, and consistency if i needed to replace a section or add it as accents which we have done so it worked out, good luck I think you will be happy with the end product
