Dub Haus Build Thread

[DubHaus]

Looking good. Any chance a list of materials to get from Dodo?? Need to order some whilst I have the panels off looking for leaks.

@JDC I initially ordered:
50 sheets of Dodo Mat DEADN Hex
1 Roll Dodo Thermo Liner Pro 10mm Special Edition
2x Dodo Thermo Fleece 50mm (100mm is out of stock everywhere!)

and I've just ordered:
4 Cans of Dodo 500ml High Temp Contact Adhesive
2 Rolls of Aluminium Finishing Tape 24mm
Dodo Mat DEADN Duo Twin (for the floor)

It looks like at the moment I'll definitely need:
Another 10-12 Sheets of Dodo Mat DEADN Hex
Maybe 2-3 metres of Dodo Thermo Liner Pro 10mm Special Edition
to finish of the rear load area.

I'm thinking I'll probably order another box of 50 sheets of the DEADN Hex and a full roll of the Thermo Liner Pro SE as I'll probably need most of that when I get round to deadening and insulating the Cab area.

Hope that helps?

Yeah, that's brilliant. It gives me something to go on.
I read 35mm thermo fleece is good to use, I didn't think 100mm would get in the all nooks and crannies!!! Might look at the B&Q stuff as it's the same thing I think, recycled plastic. Not sure if its100mm or 50mm though. Any help, gratefully received. Thanks.

@JDC I checked out the youtube videos from Combe Valley Campers and based my shopping list on their recommendations. They use 100mm in the lower panels, tailgate and sliding door, and the 50 mm on the upper panels and roof.

I need to double up the 50mm on the lower panels so if it's too much on the roof and bulges the roof panels then I'll just use it doubled up and look for some 35mm from B&Q etc.

Luckily they’d only been on two weeks and looks like they didn’t clean it properly before they stuck them on so bit of dental floss to split the tape and then panel wipe removed the remained of the tape. 10 mins and we’re back to square one
