Remove dust and cobwebs with a utility brush. Adhere insulation to garage door open your adhesive and start adhering your cut insulation to the door. If needed you can use a little bit of masking or duct tape to help you hold each foam panel in place as the glue dries. Prepare the inside face of a one piece metal or wood door where adhesive is needed to attach the foam insulation.

Cut a sheet of rigid foam insulation to fit each section.

Use a marker to place an x in each place so you can come back quickly and just attach all of the adhesive. Repeat this step until you have cut enough insulation to cover the entire door.
