To add an interesting aesthetic to the sides of my motorhome, and to demonstrate the versatility of flattened spray foam, I have added dado detailing along the sides. Here are a few pictures of the dados. (For those that don't know, a dado is a groove. It's a term used largely in carpentry).
This is a very slow, careful process, it requires striking a straight, level line, then taking a handsaw and cutting along the line to the desired depth. Then I take the saw and cut out the initial bigger chunks and carefully carve out the remainder with my striker tool - this one is 1.5' by 1" with short angled blades all along it; actually a key tool in my patented wall system.
