Dynamat dulls the panel which is great but you should then get a sticky backed decoupling layer which is either foam rubber or something like the original fluffy stuff.

Is that stuff pretty heat resistant, I always thought it was just for ICE builds and using in doors and general stuff inside the car? I’m pretty paranoid of stuff going on fire etc It’s for the engine bay, not the stuff inside the car, sorry I didn’t say in my original post.

Thanks for the suggestions, I wanted to go for silver or gold so I decided to try some of this. Wasn’t sure on the Dynamat spec, I couldn’t seem to find a temperature rating listed for it, from memory I think it may be the dynaliner stuff I was looking at.

From general research this stuff seems to fall into 3 categories, no temp rating, 200c and then 1000c, there’s doesn’t appear to be an in between
