Dynaliner from Dynamat is one of the most effective automotive thermal insulators available on the market today.
It is extremely lightweight and ideal for use on top of your Dynamat Xtreme, because it is soft, and made of thousands of cells of a closed self-adhesive rubber, which are closely packed together, to give it a near-perfect zero air infiltration.
This is the key to heat, oils and water reduction. It does not hold water, and therefore it will not promote the production of mildew or dust, like other under carpet padding insulators. Dynaliner is also durable, and tear resistance.
