Has anyone ever used a Tar board insulation material on their floorboards under the carpet? I found a kit at Cal Imports Parts. It states it will insulate and reduce noise. Pre cut to fit bugs so I figure I might just need to shorten the rear pieces. So if anyone out there have tried this stuff please post your opinions.
As Always, Thanks

When I was doing auto upholstery, several years back. We didn't use Dynamat because of its cost. We used Bituthene, it is a membrane roofing product used on commercial roof tops.
I swear that it is identical to Dynamat, only about 1/60th the cost. They are both rubber based, adhesive backed membranes. Bituthene is available at any roofing supply store, problem is you don't need a 100 foot roll. Perhaps by asking a roofer, you can score a few feet of it.
Bituthene is the trademark, generic name is, self-healing bituminous membrane.
