I used Owens R-12 as insulation on my last one .  Does anyone have any better ideas insulating it?  I have also used the spray insulation but I think I may want to stay away from it?

Any help?  The wife and kids are gone this week so I am tuning my whole house into a huge restoration center to get things finally finished.

From what I've read on this forum in the past, the spray insulation might cause some problems if you ever had to tear the machine back down at a later point.  I wouldn't want to have to scrape that stuff off.

Enjoy the large scale restoration center!
