It's like armaflex insulation with some very very sticky glue.


Had a hard time trying to keep it from sticking to me while putting it on.

How big of a difference have you noticed? Not sure what scale to use, but qualitatively what do you think?

Lots of similar products.... Seems from all I'v read on the topic all pretty much same result no matter how expensive (or not ) they are. Ton of discussion on that topic all over the internet. Am curious though on how well the various types actually hold up.

Keep us posted on how well this stays bonded to the various places you put it.

Do you have an air conditioner?

I am curious what the combined effect would be. It was 114 degrees where i was last week.

My friends jeep registered 126 the week before.

3 rolls 24" x 40" that stuff is sticky.
We shall see if it's good stuff.
It's only been on for 1 run up to operating temps so we will have to wait and see.

I will add this. This will NOT bond or stick to Lizard skin or any type of Rhinoliner surface on it's own. The stuff is not very sticky at all honestly. After a few heat cycles it is going to come off. Use a 3M spray adhesive on the back of it before applying.

Sound mat

Yes! Did this to ours last year. We used a 'Sound Mat' type of product that was tar-like on one side and reflective aluminum on the other and came in sheets. Super sticky and it has not come off in the heat or even looked to peel anywhere..

Huge improvement in heat transfer and sound level.

Just do it..

Do remember what brand you used for the sound / heat mat or where you purchased it at?
