Adding insulation over vinyl backed insulation

| Posted in Construction Techniques on
We are wanting to create living quarters inside of our metal building. our main concern is that the building is already insulated with a vinyl backed insulation (the vinyl is on the inside of the building so the new insulation would be placed against it). The current insulation isnt a high enough R value for a home in our zone. What options do we have for adding rock wool insulation to up the R value?
