I have a steel shipping container that I intend to upgrade for heated storage. Currently has about 2" of foam insulation sprayed on interior walls. Intend to add 2x4 studs and add batt insulation. Then panelling. Do you forsee any problems with this approach?
Answer:
Yes I do because the metal on the outside will serve as a vapour barrier and you cannot really afford that. Things stored there are almost sure to corrode.
