  3. The durability issue has been argued extensively. Having followed and participated in the argument for 6 years, I can tell you that a very common progression is: 1) strongly endorsing the durability of asphalt based products. 2) having the asphalt melt out. This has occurred with several well known advocates of extremely precise installation techniques. This isn't to say your P&S will melt. The VOC's could have dissipated enough to leave the asphalt as a hard and relatively stable crud. It is to say that there is a high failure rate. 66' X 3' for $200 works out to a buck per ft². Now consider that the marketing hype I'm pushing suggests covering 25% of the surface with a proper vibration damper. Compared to 1 layer at 100% coverage, you're paying the equivalent of $4/ft². 2 layers and you're $8/ft². That really kills the cost advantage. More material means more work. Add having to heat it and it's much more work. What happens if the material needs to be removed for body work? That's not to say that multiple layers of P&S won't create a barrier - a very light weight barrier, but a barrier none the less. It would actually work better if you didn't remove the release paper on the floor. So it's really a balance between doing more work for less performance. Throw in the durability "questions" and it just doesn't make sense to me.
  4. The company itself ran by a jackass so I would not recommend their products. As Denim mentioned you would be substantially better off by contacting Sound Deadener Showdown. High quality products sold by an individual who actually understands sound deadening and will be extremely helpful in helping you achieve your goals.
  5. That's false. Heat will greatly reduce the likelihood that it will fall off in a few days but does nothing to increase long term durability. It actually accelerates the deterioration of the rubber compounds added to the asphalt to improve heat tolerance. Luck is the only thing that plays a role in how long it will last.
