you used 1/2 inch, Dan C used 1 1/2 divided by 2 so that's 3/4 less a saw blade.....heck, one guy even used spray foam built up then shaped.

some use tape to cover the foam some use a wrap or peel ply

F it, time to roll with something if it's wrong

: I used the 1/2"pink sheet foam from Home Depot. It worked fine
: but I may have gone about it differently then how you plan!! The
: pink stuff is very easy to shape with either a rasp or coarse
: sandpaper. I tacked it using hot melt glue which held fine and
: was pried off after the coaming was setup.
