Heat Shield Repair, Lost Thread

[Roncallo]

Gentelmen

I posted a thread on the repair of my mufflers heat shield for a 1988 560SL. I got several replies including tips on various stainless steels, welding techniques and pop rivets ect. I also had one guy who offered to sell me some aircraft exhaust insulation material. Unfortunatly I had to go to Germany and never got a chance to follow up on the purchase or any advice. Now that I am back I have tried to research my posts but it seams that all of my posts of late September and early October are not there. Please if you have any advice or material sources repost them.

I need to purchase thermal insulation material and stainless steel.

Thank You
