[QUOTE="jer79, post: 77104, member: 573"] in the past I have ripped down inch and a half foam board to 12 1/2 inches and put that between 2x4 that were tapcon ed into the wall at 16 on center flat. just start with a board then put a piece of foam up, attach your next board etc/ that should work as a vapor barrior. u could run a quick bead of silicone (foam board friendly product) along the board if ur worried about air exchanging. it is kinda tricky I think because you don't want to end up with a "double vapor barrier". anyway if you put foam board up on a concrete wall, I think this could be the simplest and fastest method. use a table saw of course to rip the foam. this way the foam always fits tight in the cavity. maybe someone else has the hard and fast rule for vapor barriers and concrete.
