I would like to insulate the ceiling/under roof of my horse trailer. Several years ago I took these pictures of a trailer who had the ceiling finished the way I liked.  I believe the ceiling material is FRP, pebble finish  Any ideas where I can purchase the aluminum batten strips?  Any other suggestions besides styrofoam boards covered by frp?

I used FRP panels too with SS screws into the ribs.   In cold weather, the screw heads will be points of condensation.  The SS resists rust stains.   If you use aluminum batten strips, they too will get wet.  I suggest wood strips to reduce the condensation.
