Among the motorists, the opinion is that one engine start in winter is equivalent to 100 km of a summer trip. And this is true: in winter, it is a difficult time for a car. It is not easy to start the engine (especially diesel) in the cold.

In order to facilitate the winter start of the engine, many drivers use different ways to comfort the bonnet. Let' s start by saying that all the ways to insulate the bonnet are dangerous and safe.

The dangerous methods of the type 'cardboard before the radiator' or 'the engine' are dangerous. It is not necessary to warm the engine, as it is fraught with fire! There are many more efficient and safer bonnet insulation in the car shops.

More recently, the easiest and most accessible material for the bonnet was felt, but it has not been easy to find recently. An alternative to a volyloch is a pennylon covered with foil, which can be found in the construction shop. This material does not only hold the heat well, but it does not burn, which is very important for the comforting of the bonnet. Moreover, even when heated, it is not deformed.

After you buy a piece of the size you need, you'll need to cut a bonnet on the form. To begin with, it is necessary to outline the "hedges" on an unnecessary piece of wallpaper, and then transfer the resulting form to the pennylon. To secure the insulator under the hood, you can buy special clips in the car store.

If you do not want to insulate the hood with your hands, you can buy a finished blanket for the engine: it is made of a special non-combustible cloth and throws it on top of the entire engine compartment.

It would be worth more than a piece of pennylon, but there should be no trouble with it.
