[QUOTE="Buffalohed, post: 2869440, member: 573552"] [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] There are many different kinds of flashing cement you will find at Lowes/Home Depot in the roofing department, you should look through them to find their temperature ratings and different properties. I got the kind that has butyl rubber in it. 30lb bucket was ~$30 for the middle-end brand, cheapo stuff is less. When it "dries" it is still pliable. Kind of like tar but not super sticky. I highly doubt that it will actually melt even in the summer here, but I will let you all know if it does. The good thing is if it [I]does[/I] melt, it has nowhere to go but to run down the inside of the wheel well (where it already is anyway) and then drip onto the ground, so no harm done. As for deadening the inside being more effective, I can't comment on that. I heavily deadened the floor of the car before doing this, but like I said I noticed a bigger change with simply coating the tire wells than from deadening the entire inner floor. I wouldn't recommend putting it inside the car... no, however, I do have a ton of it in my trunk. It hasn't caused me any problems after 3 months. [/QUOTE]
