Good point.
My exhaust dumped into my cargo area for a few months, it sucked ***.

No, I don't lick fish.
Dukie do you have a link for you sound deadening mats? Also are they water resistant/proof? I'm curious about doing this for mine too. Even with the piece of carpet that I cut out and thre in the back cargo area, when I have my A/C on and turn my head, it's cool on one side of my face and roasting on the other side.

This is the sound deadener i bought - 2 layers of foil and a 50mil butyl substrate
SD7 Super Sound Deadener Double No Smell Aluminum 100 Butyl Dynamat Sample | eBay
Everywhere I researched said that Butyl is the material you want for this - it doesn't smell like asphalt-based products, and more importantly it doesn't melt. It also is a viscoelastic material (unlike asphalt), which makes it a much better vibration dampener - or more accurately it's a "constrained layer viscoelastic vibration damper" (CLD).

i'll be roughening it up and using epoxy primer before the bedliner. I doubt it would stick to it well without doing the epoxy primer first.

yea - except the rep for monstaliner specifically forbids the use of self-etching primer

based on what? fear of out gassing? full cure then locked in with a 2K epoxy there will be no out gassing. and we can then ensure anchor to the substrate. That foil is pretty slick... stuff might not mechanically adhere

testing from what i understand, supposedly they have had adhesion issues - i guess the coating doesn't like phosphic acid.
With 2K epoxy over top though you're probably right it'll be fine...i'll send him an email to ask for his recommendation.

We have had problems with some coating breakdown sue to the etch, so we do exactly that and use the etch as an adhesion promoter then lock it down with the epoxy and shoot top coat... I have some MIL-DTL-53022 we can lock it down with.
