A quick question about interior insulation????
Getting ready to insulate the interior of my 53 before the A/C installation.
For those who have used Dyna-Mat or the cheaper version of it that Mid-Fifty sells,(this is the one I bought) how well does it stick to the interior paint? Should the surface be glossy or sanded? I used the cheaper stuff in the interior of my Mack, which is just primed, and it didn't seem to stick real well.
I plan to line the whole interior with sound deadener and then add a layer of insulation on the roof, firewall and floor. Does this sound like a good idea?
Thanks for any advice, Jeff

Sound deadener first, then insulation, then jute, then carpet/whatever.
I used heavy duty RattleTrap, 80mil, like this from EBAY
100^ 80 Mil Rattle Trap FatMat Deadener+ Dynamat Roller:eBay Motors (item 370212660752 end time Jun-17-09 20:15:16 PDT)
and it stuck to everything.
I used this heat insulation on top

Good links...
So, you still need to put heat insulation on top of the deadener? I did not know that. I thought the dynamat stuff did both? Good to know.

I used B-Quiet (did a Google search for Dynamat and found B-Quiet) sound deadener which stuck to anything and everything I out it on. Over that I put 3/8" insulation with rattle can adhesive. To make a long story short I found out that you should use the 3M high bond strength adhesive. Expensive but worth doing it only once. Results were great.
