Refletix installation

Installing 1st layer of Refletix to the interior of the outside skin, it’s glued and taped. My helper came up with an idea of applying the 2nd layer of Refletix to the outside of the framing to be held in place with glue and the inside skin. We would use a small roller to brake the bubbles where they contact the channels and interior skin we would also install foam blocking to separate the two layers of Refletix in case some glue turns loose. What say you all? Will it work?
THANKS.

I did 2 layers with the innermost covering the ribs.

It might be a challenge if you try to re-use the original skins, I doubt there would be any chance of lining up old rivet holes.
