Alan:

I have never used the stuff you mentioned or the Dynamat. What I use is
Pro-Form PF366 sound deadening sheets. You peel the back of it and use a heat
gun to stick to the floor and it takes the shape of your floors. I have had
some on my own Healey for several years with no rust issues. It does not
possess all the heat shielding attributes that Dynamat has but with good
original underlay material (jute), it is plenty adequate and looks like the
original tar paper. Their site is at www.proformproducts.com
