Re: sound deadener
 

I did a ton of research on this before I lined the burb. I ended up going with raammat. It got great reviews everywhere I looked. I spoke to the owner of the company and he explained everything about it. I used that for the surface noise and vibration. Next I used the neoprene material for the reflective sound vibration ( it absorbs the soundwaves that are airborn) lastly I used the homedepot insulation roll for heat insulation. Then carpet over the top. I must say it quited down the burb substantially. I used it on the floor, ceiling, and sides, including the doors and cargo area. With a big block and pretty loud mufflers it did a great job quieting it down. Now the doors shut with a new car thud, and not a hollow sounding rattle. Hope this helps.

He had a great comparison chart, but I guess he got rid of it. Wish I still had a copy of it. It had all the comparisons of the different products.

I've had good luck with the Fat Mat product in the past. It worked as well as dynamat at a fraction of the price. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone.

As far as heat shielding, I haven't noticed any difference from the stock carpet in my DD.
