Built to tolerate extreme temperatures and reflect the majority of radiant heat, the sheet is cut to a handy 12\" x 48\" size for targeted coverage and neat installation. The lightweight, pliable construction lets you conform the mat around curves and close gaps while the peel-and-stick backing minimizes tools and installation time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this mat reduce heat transfer in cars and homes?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe aluminized face reflects up to 97% of radiant heat away from the protected surface, lowering the thermal load that reaches plastics, paint, wiring and nearby components. The woven fiberglass core adds insulation and structural stability, helping maintain lower surface temperatures behind the shield under sustained heat exposure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReflective aluminized finish rejects radiant heat efficiently.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFiberglass body adds thermal resistance and durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces heat damage risk to wiring, hoses, paint and cabinets.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I apply the Ummickl heat shield myself and where does it stick best?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe mat includes an adhesive composite layer on the back to enable direct stick-on application to clean, dry surfaces for a tidy, professional appearance without clamps or rivets.
