The inside wall (as seen through the roof opening) looks very rough and chisled out. That has me curious about the thickness of the foam... it almost looks like it came in a 1.5cm thick slab and it was cut in half......yes no?

Hello Friends,
this material must be painted with acryllic colours, not enamel.
this foam is used here in big plates for isulating the walls, roof, etc.... and yes Scott you have a good eye. this plates came in 30 mm thick and must be cut with a kitchen knife
best regards
Carlos
