? about DYNAMAT

Be careful with that foam. Don't put it anywhere where moisture can collect. You could end up with rust hidden under it and you wont know it is there until your feet are popping through the floor boards. This is why I like Dynomat/and other companies that use the tacky pads with aluminum. You get a good seal. If you have bubbles you cant get out, use an exacto-knife to cut a small crease to let the air out and then press it in. It should seal itself, but you can use glue or sealant if you are worried about moisture there. Also, it has the aluminum cover which also works as a moisture barrier....kinda like the plastic covering on your higher-end carpet pads (anyone want a dog?).

I have used it many times before. I put $500 worth of the stuff in my last VW Bug



I am replacing the door skins on my 79 TA and put Dynomat on the skin before I welded them in. It is so freggin amazing how well that stuff works. The door sounds like fiberglass or plasic now.

I use 'Peel and Seal', get it at your local roofing supply place. They use it to seal/soundproof mobile homes. It basically is DynaMat, or at least it's where they got the idea for DynaMat. The main difference is that you can buy enough to cover every inch of your interior for about 1/5 the price of Dynamat. I believe it is asphalt-based, but has pretty much no odor. I did the entire interior of my '02 camaro with it, and it didn't smell at all.

I have wanted to try that. Maybe I will put some in my Jeep this summer since I won't have that as long as my TA. I wanted to see what happens to it when it is allowed to remain in a sweltering summer car. I wonder if the smell becomes stronger.
