Has any-one seen 'Caneite used as an insulation around an ice-box before??? I don't think it would be very effective as it is a wood produst.

Got a couple of them old wood eskies.The liner is gal. The insulation is 1" cork.Did try for coldness when i first got them with half bag ice & couple tinnies. 24 hrs later the tinnies were still chilled nicely.Can`t see why caneite shouldn`t work as used on van roofs. gordon

I changed it for used Broccoli boxes ....Not entirely original...but easy to work & shape......and I think will be more efficient in the long run. But then they wouldn't have had Broccoli boxes back in the 50's......would they??

Wooden know! Funny thing though,they`re using that polystyrene in most new car insulation now. gordon

my 10-9 carapark has caneite between the top of the ice chest and the aluminium sink. Nothing anywhere on the sides - just air gap of around 1 - 1&1/2 inches
