Personally using adhesive backed closed cell neoprene sheets, 1/8 inch or 1/4 inch.Nice!! How do you seal the edges where panels meet?
I cover all six (6) faces of the panel before putting the panel into the assembly further.
Gentle compression from structure keeps neoprene in place.
This kind of neoprene, but wider sheets:
Naturally, one layer of 1/4 inch neoprene on each side of a 1 inch panel will of course turn it into a 1.5 inch panel.
Have used this: Sponge Neoprene With Adhesive 1/4" Thick X 54" Wide X 1' and it works well enough for me.
Panasonic recommends adding padding to it to reduce thermal bridging also. The fiberglass core is relatively conductive and padding with neoprene helps optimize the thermal characteristics too
