- JoeChiOhkiExplorer IICoat it in snow roof before you try painting it. The solvents in a number of the paints will dissolve the foam board.
- monicarick01ExplorerThanks for idea of HOUSE paint. I used Kiltz interior/exteriour primer bright white, and it went on perfectly and is no longer pink.
- F1bNormExplorerI'm assuming you're talking about the 2" edge of the foam? If yes, how about 2" colored tape, either plastic or duct. Quick, easy and will offer some protection to the foam.
Norm - FishinghatExplorer III used a water based white exterior house paint. It took several coats but eventually worked.
I used the foam to build a insulation jacket for my portable freezer to make it more efficient. Even though it was out of sight in my storage bay, I didn't like the "pink" color of the foam. Besides, if it is outside in the sun, the white paint will help reflect sunlight. - Super_DaveExplorerDoesn't the camper bumper area cover it visually while on the truck? If I was going to try and paint it, I would use a water based paint so it doesn't react with the insulation.
- monicarick01ExplorerI should clarify. I glued the foam ONTO the camper so I would not have to remove it or store it when the camper is not in use.
Thanks for the input - wintersunExplorer III put the pink foam on top of the bed liner for the box and then put a standard rubber bed mat on top of the foam. When the camper is off the truck I leave the foam and rubber mat inside the bed and put on a fiberglass cap. The rubber mat keeps the camper from sliding and also keeps cargo from sliding around when the cap is being used.
