Even though my labor is free, I still would not want to spend that much time cutting and trimming sheets of rubber which still don't cover as well as Lizard Skin does.

There's also a lot of time and labor involved with installing Dynamat.

It is a bit pricey, but I don't think it really costs all that much more than it would to install Dynamat. It's probably a bit thicker where I have the thermal insulation applied - it's a lighter product and builds more than the sound control. At about $75/gallon, you would be looking at about $1200 if you tried to build up a layer that thick. When I tap a panel, the resulting sound is more like tapping a piece of plywood - it doesn't have much of a metallic sound to it.ģ/8" of Lizard Skin would be over a thousand dollars and I doubt you would gain any extra sound proofing. There is no reason to go any thicker - the car feels very solid and does not echo at all. I am probably sitting at about 1/10" thick and that's a total of 5 layers of stuff (3 coats of sound control and 2 of thermal insulation). You would need a a heck of a lot of product to make a layer 3/8" thick. I am thinking about spraying the rest of the sound control on the underside of my fenders so that I don't get any "reverse dents" from rocks getting thrown up and hitting the fenders. I read that Lizard Skin can be used in wheel wells - it would probably not have any trouble standing up to rocks kicked up by the tires. Lizard Skin is a water based product, where bed liner is a 2 part product that uses a chemical process to harden it.

It's a hard surface - not rubberized at all. The finish is similar to truck bedliner, but it's not as durable.
