SuperTherm doesn't appear to offer an auto-specific product, but they do have a [http://video.bobvila.com/m/21320566/facing-and-insulating-the-steel-shipping-container.htm demo shot during an episode of Bob Vila's show] which shows how effective these materials can be.  It's quoted as giving an R-factor of 19 for a 10 mil (0.010") dry coat of their material.  That's about the same as 6" of household fiberglass insulation. If this is accurate, this would be a tremendous amount of insulation propery for its thickness (''needs confirmation'')!
