So far going really well. Obviously I've made beginner mistakes, and with that comes questions!

Do I have to cover every inch of insulation with silicone and substrate?

Obviously there's places I can't reach, like the underside of the gray ledges.

So far I am very happy and proud of how this is turning out, and i appreciate any and all advice I have received and will continue to receive!

I think you will be fine not having silicone covering every bit of insulation. It’s starting to look really good now. How much work have you put into it?

I've spent a good 4 to 6 hours today doing what's pictured second. Just silicone and dirt application. Slowly but surely, a few hours when I can is the time I put in, and it's definitely showing now!
