Looking for a reputable vendor that sells dynamat or something of the sort for cheap.
Or, a Home Depot equivalent, which I've heard of, but can't remember the name of.
What do you guys do?
thanks Darren

I use the reflective roll insulation made for walls and floors from Lowe's... Cheap and works very well.. I would suggest a can of 3m spray adhesive though..

Darren, Contact a place called Dalfen Auto in Mississauga, Ontario. They sell rattle trap/fat mat. 200 sq ft for like $100. I have purchased many rolls of stuff from them for various vehicles. It is a tar and tinfoil type of stuff. Does a great job and from what I have found, exactly the same as the Dynamat (did a vehicle once in Dynamat as well). Here is the link: http://www.dalfenauto.com/

And how does it rate against a "purpose built type" dynamat product? Any one with a comparison......? Quote:

My buddy set me on to it... he has it in his 52 ford P/U and we've run drag week the last few years and I thought it was pretty darn good for being light weight... thats why I put it in my Rampage... the big dollar stuff is probably better but I dont want the weight and I dont need the big dollar price tag... if you look at most of them they give you a fairly small piece for $25... I think I spent $22 and had plenty left over
