Getting R-30 in an attic suite with 2x6 ceiling rafters

Better than spray foam (thermal break and relatively consistent R-30+). Here's how to use 3 layers of 2 inch polyiso foam board to meet code and keep your new upstairs cozy.
**UPDATE WATCH THIS BEFORE YOU CUT FOAM https://youtu.be/Z292iuV91hA
I used a 2 inch rigid polyiso foam (GAF Energyguard) I got from a local roofing supply company (ABC Roofing). It is really the type of foam they use on commercial roofs beneath a membrane. I believe mine was made by GAF, and ran me about $18 per 4x8' sheet. I cut two layers to fit in the rafter bays (so that's 4 inches), spaced 1&1/2" away from the roof-deck with scraps of 2x4s (which maxed out my 5 1/2" inch rafters). Then I put another layer across the rafters, which made a total of 6 inches of polyiso. Each inch was R-5.4, so the total R value of all 3 layers was 32.4. Wherever there were gaps, I squirted some Great Stuff in, then shaved the overflow back with a flush cut hand-saw.-- Yes, it passed insulation inspection.
