flexwatt question.
Okay, so as alot of you know I'm building a rack in the next few weeks. My question is, would It be okay to put heat tape on peg board? ... I'm thinking of doing 11" flex watt on the back for back heat and the 11" would cover almost 1/3 of the enclosure. But would it be okay to put on peg board with some aluminum foil tape?
If not, what is something flimsy like peg board I could use for the backing? I want peg board due to the fact it will have a lil give and not be tightly screwed to the melamine boards..... I was also going to cover the back side of the peg board with something to help keep heat in.....
Any help would he awesome, I am really hoping that this will work like I want bc ill start buying material soon!!!!!!!
Thanks...

Re: flexwatt question.
I don't see why it wouldn't work. I use paneling nail instead of tape.
