Removing dynamat

Is there a way to remove dynamat after it was placed. I want to take the dynamat off my trunk so I can use some sludge instead.

I would place the sludge right over the dynamat.

But if you really want to take it off, a paint scraper and some goo gone work pretty well.

I have thought about doing the sludge on top, but im not sure of my install of the dynamat. It all adheared very well in the trunk (not so well in the doors). But it doesnt look like a good job, ive seen dynamat installed where it looks like it just streached over the shape of the trunk and into the wheel well and everything. With mine it was all parts of a roll of dynamat all cut up to fit where I wanted it. So if the install of it wasnt great wouldent that damage the use of the sludge as well??

As long as it is Dynamat Xtreme (aluminum foil facing) and it doesn't have any air pockets, it doesn't matter that it is applied in many small pieces. Applying a liquid or paste over the mat will give you a better result than just using liquid or paste alone. If it's Dynamat Original (brown and rubbery) take it off. In either case, heat the mat with a heat gun or hair drier and it should peel off relatively easily.
