[QUOTE="ducatipaso, post: 8242559, member: 644396"] I used up 22 or 23 feet of blue tint trying 6 times to tint the drives side window and I had a crease I couldn't get out each time, so while I wait for another roll of tint I am preparing to work with these shingles, roofing cement and foam matt so that I can start sound damping my C70. The weather was warmer today but the viscosity / thinness of the roofing cement has been on my mind. My first though was to warm it in a crock pot but I decided to purchase a 1100watt hot plate instead and I will just put the can of roofing cement on the hot plate. Since I am trying to adjust the temp of the roofing cement I figured I needed a thermonater to gauge its temp so I purchased a cheap meat thermonater. I figured that I would need something to stir it with so I purchased a cheap steal ladle. I can use the ladle to stir the cement and use it to transfer some cement from the can to the work surface. By heating the roofing cement it should flow better and as it cools the outside skin should be thicker and harder then the normal curing. The added heat should also make it stick and bond to the shingles better. I want to heat the shingles so they are easier to cut, conform to curves better & bond better with the cement. I am debating between using 2 electrical irons to heat the shingles or a toaster oven & then rotate 4 small sheet pans of shingle pieces in and out of the toaster oven. After I sound dampen the doors then I will take a closer look at the door panels and decided if I want to go purchased some mdf and dig the router table out of the attic, the router table hasn't been used for years.
