Mine fell off a few months ago and I'm looking to replace it with something cheap that I could by from a material shop.

Try some of that heavy duty thermal bubble wrap that they sell at home depot. The better stuf is silver or white on one side and black on the other. Look in the insulation area. Some OEM battery blankets are made out of that type of stuff. It also is non-absorbent and doesn't blast to shreds with a pressure washer.

Thanks. I'll head to that section next time I go there. I almost wanted to say it was made of wool or fiberglass.

Picked up some 3/4 inch insulation.
