That stuff doesn't even have aluminium on it.........

Id go with some rammat if you are on a budget, if not second skin

does aluminum have magical acoustical deading powers?

I really dont know but there is obviously a reason they use it. And that stuff looks really thin

its 80 mil, not the thickest, but you could glue some tinfoil to it ....LOL

I was thinking a layer of this, then a layer of regular damp instead of one layer of damp pro

i could also get( to who ever buys this) a can of primer that is used to make this stuff stick to the rubber roof which makes it almost impossible to peel it up..... but im not sure on the shipping regulations of chemicals so that prolly wont be an option, but if you go to any roofing supply store u can pick some up, but be prepared to never get the shit off what ever you put it on the formflashing will be stuck for good

Straight from the SecondSkin website:

"The thick foil on Damplifier offers three thermal insulation benefits.

First, the foil acts as a radiant barrier, reflecting heat back towards the source. When used on the firewall, this prevents as much heat from making it in to the cabin of the car. Less heat means cooler temperatures.

Second, the foil heat shield on Damplifier is dissipates heat by increasing the surface content, allowing for thermal dissipation and reduction.

Third, the butyl layer slows down any remaining heat from getting in to the cabin of the car. The longer it takes the heat to get to you, the more comfortable you are."

I think that's the same as peel n seal, from HD.

is it bad u use a asphault type for deadning?

i mean i read on that site that they can melt and get all over the window mechanisms and stuff but how hot are we talking about getting? I live in Indiana so im not in cali or anything like that it doesnt get too hot but it does get rather cold in winter

its not asphalt based, as far chemical makeup im not sure but i can find the MSDS sheets and find out

we also got some white stuff that is for TPO roofs same as the black stuff but doesnt stretch, is thicker and its top layer is like a rubberized plastic, but its only 6 inches wide
