Re: [Amc-list] Sound mats and belts



I did some online searching and see that Grace makes an ice dam now for high temp areas and under metal roofs.
So, I'm going to see if it is availabel local.
Stuff is heavy, shipping is high.
The Grace ultra uses butyl adhesive, if I can get it I'll us it in the doors and other vertical places.
The regular stuff on the floors.
I have a bunch of the silver bubble wrap insulationg I took off my old wood garage doors when we replaced them last year. I'll use some of it on what I can reach of the firewall.
Last effort will be, i hope, to use bedliner and roll it on the underside of the floors as they need prettied up anyway.

  I have not intention of dropping the headliner at this point.

All of this is going to happen after I spend some quality time with the convertible!
