[Shotimes] Line-X for soundproofing my floor?

I would think the spray on truck liner material would work 
great for sound deadening.  What you are trying to do is 
stop vibration and rattles in the car body.  If possible, 
you can leave out the sand type friction material from the 
spray, no need for that.

You can also use that spray insulation foam for homes in 
places where rattles happen like the space between the trunk 
lid and the support liner underneath.

Be careful with the spray in the doors though, if you plug 
the drain holes, rust will happen pretty quick, and 
mold/mildew will also be a problem.
