Ew.. ya. Lol thin stuff with a completely useless Mylar backing instead of real foil like it should have.

so you basicly saying to go with dynomat ? but as i said if youve ever seen what Qwibbys trunk looks like after the dynomat has been in there for a while its ugly, @!#$s ozzing out everywhere and its just a huge sticky mess, thats what im trying to avoid here, i want it clean even thou ill have the carpet in there. after installing it.

You're trying to avoid a messy and stinky install by using a roofing product derivative? hahahaha jesus......
Again, and this might just be the last time I say it, if you want better performance, cleaner install, higher quality in every way, thicker material, and over all the best of the best, you get Cascade or you get Second Skin. Period. I would never, ever, ever recommend any other sound and vibration control products.
Also, remember that damping mat(deadener) is a VIBRATION stopper. It's made to reduce or eliminate panel resonance by adding mass and also the foil backing helps isolate sound waves. It is NOT designed for sound blocking, even though it does that a tiny bit. It would cost so much money to "soundproof" your car with a damping mat. If you want to stop vibrations and cover some small holes in panels, Cascade V-Max or Second Skin Damplifier Pro are the way to go. If you want to stop road noise from getting in, or your sound from getting out, and don't want to spend a ton of money and time, you get Cascade VB-4 or Second Skin Luxury Liner Pro.
Get detailed on the exact goal here, the budget, and what panels you plan to attack and I can get in depth more. Neither of these brands are going to ooze or deteriorate or fall off. Both brands I have mentioned have the best adhesive layer I have ever seen along with all their other top shelf qualities. I've had some Second Skin Damplifier Pro on the underside of my trunk lid all summer and it doesn't smell a single bit, doesn't sag anywhere, and has not "oozed" in any way. And Cascade is even a step above that.

^This. Ive sealed my 6x9 holes and trunk vent using wood. A lot cleaner and sturdier.
i still want my 6x9s, just wanted to seal everything else up and put a port where the 3rd brake light was. maybe itd act like a ported box to the inside of the car ?
i looked up both sites and im gonna go with the Second Skin, stuffs pricey but seems like it truely works

i said that cuz like dynomat sells thier stuff in sheets and all u get is like 2-3 sheets and u pay like $150 just for that. i bought a Roll of lizardskin for 150 and it did 3 of my cars , so i figured if i could get it like that then i knew id have enough to do everything i wanted to
