Main reason for insulation board vs spray foam was:
1- cost
2- DIY factor
like I said I can do the top half all the way around in a day for probably $700. that would get me R-5 foam board. which I know isn't great, but going from maybe R-1 block to R-5 would have to help a lot. one quote I saw online for spray foam was like $3000. plus all the "stuff" I have around the walls on my garage is just too much to move to have a professional spray it.
I figure I can glue the sheeting to the walls, use a couple nails to hold it till it dries. maybe even install a ceiling fan to help push the heat back down.
Edit to add: The actual insulation I am looking at has an R value of 6.5. also I would probably screw it to the walls rather than glue, this way its removable if ever needed.
